I was recently doing some research on the internet about endo & came
across a website that might be able to help you before you resort to a
hysterectomy. It is http://www.endometriosissupport.com. The one who has the
website is a nutritionist. I was going to go see her, but I have now
changed my mind after talking to her cause most of the women who use her
services are either trying to get pregnant or are using her methods as a
last resort before having a hysterectomy. My husband & I decided
against it because we have already been blessed with two beautiful
little girls & my doc & I are still trying to find the right combination
of medication to help keep the endo in check. But you might want to
email her or give her a call & just chat with her to see if she might be
able to help you. Hope this helps a bit. Pain free days to all, Mindy
