My doc prescribed Letrozole for estrogen supression. I have been on it 9 days and have been experiencing fullness in my ovaries and uterus. They are very swollen and tender, they fell like they are going to pop. I couldn't sleep due to the pain and barely made it through my work day. My mood has also been effected and I have been more depressed. I called my doctor and they offered to switch to Ayegestin, but its up to me.

It's not constant like it used to be so I'm wondering if it's worth looking into surgery now or if I should wait till it gets worse and do it then

After having my lap, my OB put me on the mini-pill. I have been on it for two years and had breakthrough bleeding a lot. I have a history of low iron/anemia as well, from my Endo and heavy periods. My new OB wants me to take a higher dose, 5 mg, of Aygestin to stop my bleeding/periods, and better manage my endo
