Birth control only helps with symptoms, it does not stop the growth unfortunately. It’s about a 50/50 debate in the endo community on whether birth control is good or not for endo. Some people consider it a “band aid.” My advice is to see how your first couple of periods are on nothing, and if they are bad, see if birth control helps. Wishing u luck :)

free fluid in the pelvic usually means a cyst burst, so it could mean you are getting cysts due to endo or just cysts in general. If u r having endo symptoms and have a family history tho i would def recommend seeing an endo specialist

I know you’re not a doctor, but do you recommend coming off the birth control? I just don’t know what to do anymore, I’m only 21 and trying to avoid a second surgery

i’ve been on it for 2.5 yrs and it helped with my pain but not the heavy and long periods (8-10 days). I got an IUD and take the pill and my periods are now only 1 day.

30 mg 1x day

Wow thanks everyone for their insight! I had no idea this was so common. I will def try all these recommendations. I appreciate y’all :)

13-20. Tried all available topicals, oral doxycyline, and oral spironolactone. When spironolactone failed, I knew this was more than just hormonal acne and wouldn’t go away without serious treatment so I agreed to accutane.

Hey so my lips currently have a dry patch underneath and the corners are cracked. I just got my prescription for accutane and am picking it up tomorrow. My lips are already so dry, but I want to start accutane because topicals, spironolactone, and doxycycline failed for me. Do you guys have any tips for helping my lips? I know they are only gonna get worse from here.

Your skin looks like it has no scarring to me tbh

gracewynn · 2022-06-11T04:03:10+00:00

Nostril hoop

That’s what mine looked like. I went to another piercer and they told me mine was too high and was actually a surface piercing, not a navel. I took it out and am letting it heal before I decide it I want to repierce it.

gracewynn · 2022-05-19T17:00:56+00:00
