Loestrin 24 Fe (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone): In 2007 I started with Loestrin 24, it worked for about almost two years in controlling the endometriosis pain. Then suddenly the pain came back very strong and I ultimately needed surgical Laporoscopy. I spotted the entire time on Loestrin. Currently looking for another drug to prevent the endometriosis from coming back.

Loestrin 24 Fe (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone): My doctor had me continuously take Loestrin 24 to stop having my period altogether (I have endometriosis), which was great! I was doing well but then I started to feel weird after a while and had gained weight so as an experiment I stopped. I went right back to intensely painful and heavy periods so now I am going right back on it.

Femcon Fe (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone): This medication worked really well for a while to control breakthrough bleeding and regulate my periods. I recently started to bleed irregularly and experience more serious cramping. I just found out that my endometriosis has advanced and I have been upgraded to Nortrel 1/35. I'll try that for a while to see if that will help me while I am awaiting hysterectomy.

Ovcon 35 (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone): I think this has to be the best product. I've been dealing with problems from endometriosis since I was 12. Abnormal cycles, painful abdomen, bowel problems, etc. I had laser surgery to remove the endometriosis in July last year and afterward was placed on Ovcon 35 continuous. I had a small amount of breakthrough bleeding and pain for about a month after starting treatment. It's great now. I'm hoping to avoid further surgery for quite a bit of time.

Loestrin 1/20 (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone): Taking this medication for endometriosis has made all my symptoms better. I no longer have the horrible cramping and irregular bleeding. There isn't any more inflamation but i do suffer acne and have gained 15lbs in the past 2 months using loestrin

Loestrin 1/20 (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone): I've gotten sudden outbreaks of acne with this medication making it almost impossible to schedule activities without having shame!
