Re: Can anyone offer advice?

I take lo-ovral 28 and have been on it for years, for both pregnancy prevention and for help with endo. It works well for me-no real side effects or anything. I take it on a continuous basis (meaning no break from the active pills) as a way to help control my endo. My endo is still bad at times, but I think the BC helps me a lot. I cannot imagine how bad I would feel if I didn't take BC. I was on ortho-tricyclen before the lo-ovral and it caused break through bleeding and weight gain for me.

Good luck in whatever you decide-I hope you can find something to help.

Hugs! Amy Meyer
