I have endometreosis and casuses me a lot of pain.I've been on all types of birth control Ortho- Evra, Ortho tricycline...My doctor put me on Jolessa about 1.5 years ago. During the first 10 months I was perfect it help me out a great deal with my endo. But during these last few months I have experienced headaches, severe mood swings, depression, blood pressure irregularities, cramping and on top of that hair loss. I'd much rather deal with the pain than go through all of this. Not sure of whats out there that will help me out?

I don't know I have been on it for two weeks, now I have headache and yes I feel like my insides are twisting up inside of me don't know if its the medication or my endometriosis? I have cyst and fibroids also inside of me that might be shedding in size due to hormones? Don't know what to think for sure but I have been depressed lately more than usual. I thought it was me just thinking just my mind is messing with me but after reading these posts I figure It must be this jolessa s**t! Not sure if I'm going to stay on this for another cycle of piss.... BUT I need to take something for my REALLY BAD CASE OF ENDO? Does any one else with endo know of a better BC? I don't really like playing with different drugs in my body. I will feel better with dealing with one good/decent BC that can help my endo!!!PLEASE HELP!!!Don't know what to do!!!

I am on my seconded pack (month 4) I have endo and thought it would be awesome to only have my period 4 times a year. To my dismay, I've been spotting for the past 2 months and counting. I had a full period about 3 weeks ago and had hoped it was ending and the spotting has continued! I don't want to give up this far. I am SO hopeful that it will stop, but I am really losing that hope. Also, I have cramping still (maybe from the endo) and feel like an emotional wreck!!! I do NOT want to go back to having my regular periods... they were really heavy and severely painful, but this is really getting old fast too! I am 34 and am thinking that maybe I should just go talk to the Dr. about having a hysterectomy. I don't have children and don't think I'll ever have any anyways. Im older and am not in a relationship, so maybe I should just take the plunge?! Help!
