Hello Karen'
 I am 22 years old and i have had 8 surgeries for endo ,cysts and adhesions. I
tried the lupron shot as well , and it didn't work for me either. I just had the
luna procedure done a month ago,so far no sign of improvement.even though i know
it can take a few months to work,i hope it's sooner than later.I know it's a
50/50 chance it will work for women who have endo. Did it end up helpig you at
all? 8 surgeries is enough and i don't want 9.
