Side Effects On Voice From Danazol?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
New Haven, CT

Hi everyone, my doctor wants to start me on Danazol. I'm a singer and have read studies that say it could permanently alter the voice. Has anyone had this experience with Danazol or is this not a very common side effect?

Thank you so much, ladies!!! I got off the Danazol immediately and am now looking into excision surgery.

I haven't used it but I also wouldn't, since it's an androgen, unless you have low levels of androgens & need androgen therapy. There's no studies showing that it will keep endometriosis from progressing. Same thing with progesterone only birth control but at least that wouldn't change your voice.

I would definitely recommend seeking at least one other opinion from an endometriosis specialist. You can find them at:

endo.icarebetter.com (only source to find surgeons with vetted skill level) or in the Facebook group Nancy's Nook Endometriosis Education. Definitely see if you can have surgery with one as well instead of a regular gynecologist since they aren't capable of fully removing it like endo specialists are
