According to the pills they are progesterone and not estrogen which the
progesterone makes your body think that it is pregnant so it is
"suppose" to not "feed" the endo and make it grow -- kinda like the
topical creams etc but if that is true I am not sure. But as of right
now I am going to continue them until we decide to have children...
hopefully that will be soon?
