Can endometriosis and cysts come back while i am on pill? what can i do to prevent recurrence besides taking pill? i don't have plans to be pregnant.

Less Often: Take your pills without a break, which means not taking your placebo pills and continue your active pills every day. This should decrease your risk of recurrence. Using gonadotropin agonists like Lupron (leuprolide) is more effective. Please discuss with your doctor.
