Hi Girls, Saw this post and thought I would share a really great site with you. This Dr. Jelovsek is absolutely brilliant! I wish we could clone him a couple hundred times (why are all the great doctors never local???! :-( ). I've included several web addresses from his website. The first address lists the various bc pill strengths -- AND provides a chart as to which pill is best for which condition (including endo)!!! (It appears, I too, am on the wrong pill for endo!) The second address is an article on why one experiences continuous bleeding on the bc pill. The third address is a list of various articles he has written -- GREAT articles. The last address is the "message board" in which, for a fee, women post their questions to be answered by "Dr. Rick" -- one is able to read messages/answers at no charge.
