I had a total abdominal hysterectomy 4 weeks ago because of endometriosis.
My gynae prescribed Livial as it is supposed help stop the endo coming back. I was told to tke it for a year and then change to one with a higher progesterone (i think).
Anyway, when I went to my gp to get a new prescription of Livial, the computer flashed up a warning about it being used with caution in women with endo !!
The gp said that she was happy to prescribe as she was sure the hospital knew what they were doing.
I came home and googled, and it seems to be a bit of a mixed bag of opinions as to wether it should be used in women with endo or not.
Is anyone here on it ? Were you given it due to endo ??
