Hi all! im a 23 year old college student & have suffered with endometriosis since my very early teens. i had quite literally tried every birth control out there and nothing worked. i am stage four and rapidly develop scarred tissue and cysts on my ovaries, uterus, bowls, and abdominal wall. i have had 2 laproscopic surgeries inside of a year and a 3 months. ive seen a slew of doctors who recommended every thing from hollowing me out to IVF for pregnancy (some ppl say having a child will help with the hormonal issues). my current doc has had me on lupron for 3 months. i do experience hot flashes and occasional mood swings but no weight gain. i actually had weight loss; about 10 lbs from the removal of scarred tissue, cysts, and the loss of water weight from swelling. i remained symptom free and lead a normal life for probably the first time in my life. i do have concerns about fertility in the future as i am unwed and obivously childless.i am truly hoping this shot works! for anyone suffering in the chicago area, dr shashoua is absolutely amazing! extremely informed and wont recommend hollowing you out as an easy fix. he is dedicated to long term health and a good quality of life for his patients. good luck to all!!!!
