I have endometriosis and they performed a laprascope to make sure what they were seeing was endo. I do think that going on Birth control pills is a good idea because theycan shrink cysts I am still on it. Lupron I would say no, you should go on that after and if you have an operation. I was on that also. Good Luck!
