I would strongly discourage anyone with endometriosis from using the pill for
numerous reasons related to long-term uterine health and hormonal balance. As
someone who recovered from endometriosis w/o the use of drugs or surgery, I
am very concerned about ever suggesting a treatment that allows the condition
to advance while masking the symptoms. Herbal medicine is so successful in
treating hormonal imbalances that I consider it tragic when women are not
given this information.
