What do they usually do for people with endometriosis (that isn't on the ovaries or uterus but other internal organs like the stomach wall) and pmdd?

Lupron (leuprolide): Depo lupron is probably the best option for non resectible endometriosis. Birth control like the mirena (levonorgestrel) or continuous pill use may also help, but would start with lupron if a candidate.
