I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who has tried the patch for the use of controlling the pain from endometriosis.My doctor and I have tried several of the "Pills" for this, but have been unsuccedful in finding one andmy insurance won't cover the "depo-Lurpon" shots which seem to have worked in the past..

If anyone has any information that would be helpful I would GREATLY appreciate it. I am only 25 years old, but hvae surgery once already for this anddon't want to have it again if i can find another way to control the pain levels..


Thanks and have a great day/weekend.

If you're having trouble getting a pill to help, the patch may not help either, but it depends what pills you haven't had much luck with.
