Best maybe: Unfortunately, this might be your best result without surgery. If you have endometriosis (not considered a firm diagnosis unless biopsy proven at laparoscopy) and pain is your problem, depoprovera can be of help. Another remedy is a medication, taken monthly usually, that stops estrogen production ( has side effects) . Endometriosis can be a very tough problem. Seeking second opinions is ok.
