I have an endo specialist who is in the top 10 in the country and he put
me on a 7 week bcp cycle after danazol after the first surgery and a 10
week cycle of bcp after the second surgey. I hope all is well with
everyone else. thos just bothers me so much because I am only 19 years
old. thanks for your responses.
