I have heard that birth control is an option but we have been trying to get pregnant for a few years so BC is out for us. Everything I have read about BC all leads back to the same result with the endo coming back to show symptoms in its natural cycle every 3 - 4 years. It's true that every woman is different with endo and whether or not there symptoms present and how severe. Mine are severe but still I would not ever be persuaded to go back on Lupron. I will be getting a second opinion about surgery, in the meantime, I am going back to acupuncture. It really changed my total health and the difference in my periods and endo symptoms was incredible and immediate. I'm fortunate to be back on my feet financially to be able to return to that kind of treatment. There ARE some insurance plans that will cover acupuncture in the same kind of way that chiropractor medicine is now covered with a set number of treatments per year. I strongly encourage women to find out if they are covered in their plans and if not to consider going even once per month around the time of their periods or whenever the acupuncturist recommends is best. Even once per month brings a noticeable difference.
