Hello:
I'm a endometriosis survivor. My severity extended to other organs as well with multiple surgeries and medications. My cycles were grueling to say the least. But I tell you, after suffering for 24 years I only found two methods that worked very well:
Catflam - Which is an anti-inflammatory (but how long can you take that?) your OBGYN has to prescribe. Works great, take w/food.
Acupunture and a product called Via Viente (www.viaviente.com) saved my life! Whew. Both natural processes. It worked so well that sometimes I would forget I was having a cycle! Important note: go for acupunture one week prior to your cycle (tell him/her that's what you're coming for) and take two shots of Via Viente per day, but the last dose should be before 7 PM, this product gave me energy!
Medical Options:
Lupron shot - works great, but it causes you to gain weight/loss and severe acne, hot flashes like menopause; there is a product they use with it to help minimize the reactions.
Depovera (not sure of spelling)
Older product on market. Like a male hormone...watch out for muscle mass, excessive weight gain.
Hope this helps.
Relieved in Dallas, Texas!
