You can look up >prozac info and see that it is given to women with period pain/ endo. >good luck, steph Hi Sue and Steph, My experience is the same as Steph's. My shrink and I tried numerous different medications until discovering that a combination of Celexa (40mg) once per day and Wellbutrin SR (150 mg twice a day) was the combination that I needed. Furthermore, my shrink was an excellent medical resource. His knowledge of pharmaceuticals and medical knowledge in general kept me going through months of frustration while I tried to find the answer to what was causing my pain. Depression can be treated successfully - therefore, I don't think there's any need for women to suffer from ENDO and depression at the same time. All the best....Cara
