Actually, they think the endometriosis caused by rerograde menstruation. I have endometriosis which is a debilitating condition in which the lining of the uterus does not flush out right and moves onto other organs in the body. Usually they attach to the ovaries and bladder. Since the endometrium cells are what cause cramping, these cell pockets on the other organs have the potential to cause excrutiating pain.
I have endometriosis, but I also have menstrual migraines sometimes too. I am taking YAZ which helped for years with my pain and migraines. But now, it doesn't seem to be so effective. I have now noticed that my migraines are back for the 2 days before my period. Also that I am having intense, painful, cramps-- the ones I had before taking YAZ. And these episodes are becoming longer and more frequent.
Has anyone heard of birth control losing its effectiveness?
