I have endometriosis my doctor wants to put me on Danazol, has anyone out there used it before?

I have never tried the medicine but I have severe and agressive endometriosis. I was officially diagnosed this January after 7 years of pain that other doctors dismissed. I had my lap done in January. It didn't relieve any of my pain. I still get those horrible, indescrible pains every month. I have found no medications or treatments that work for me. My doc wants to take out my ovaries first before doing a complete hysto later in life (I'm 29). I told him that he could have them once I was done with them. (After over 3 years of trying to conceive, I am finally pregnant with my first child by IVF.)

I have always been an advocate for doing your own research and getting a second opinion. Perhaps if you got a few second opinions stating that you need to remove it all, then your insurance may pay for it. However I have read about some women who have had everything taken out and they still get pain from their endo. How horrible and unfair is that??

I hope that you find something to relieve your pain. Good Luck!!

I know you say your insurance want pay because of your age,but I would make arrangements and have a hysterectomy. It is your best option and the Danazol is just too dangerous.
