Does Anyone Here Have Any Experience With An IUD? Would You Recommend It Or Not?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have stage 3 endo and been using a dienogest pill for about 8 months but I’m hating the side effects and am considering getting an IUD put in?

For me the IUD was a tough transition, lots of pain in the first few months but then I had relief for almost two years!

I just have my Transvaginal Ultrasound this day, and so sad that my endo turns to get bigger than before after using visanne pills for about 6months. But my OBGYNE wants me to still take this visanne for another 6months again. I am so depress and i dont know if i can have the chance to get pregnant with this 11cm. Endo on my right ovary and 8cm on my left ovary.

I am on Oralissa and the weight gain is unreal. So frustrating to not feel good in your body due to symptoms of endo and how you feel about your body!!
