Taking Visanne For Endometriosis Pain. Have Menstrual Cramps. Has Medicine Stopped Working?
Hi. My daughter has been taking Visanne since March. It has worked extremely well by eliminating the excruciating endometriosis pain she was experiencing. However, within the past week or so, she has begun to feel pain again. It started out as menstrual cramps (however, she did not have a period) and today they have developed into endometriosis pain. Do you think the medication has stopped working?
