Considering Orilissa for Endometriosis: Any Experiences?

I have endometriosis and am debating if I should start Orilissa or not. Has anyone had any experience with this medication?

I’ve tired Orilissa and I would not recommend it either. I had horrible side effects.

Yes, I tried this and it just made my life five times worse the side effects from it were horrible… my vitamin D, and calcium levels were dangerously low, and my joints were hurting to the point that I had almost no mobility or ability to walk at all….it also worsened a lot of my mental health problems….. and made my hair fall out… I’ve heard some stories of it working for other people but unfortunately, my experience wasn’t great with it 😔

no you're not - I'm on it and it's really helped me. The worst part for me was the transition onto it. But once the body got used to it, the side effects were barely noticeable

I also wouldn’t recommend it! Made my pain worse and hot flashes were bad, plus going into menopause too young is never good! It’s a band aid at best, and while I’m happy for people it helps, it’s really only worth trying if having an expert excision isn’t an option. In that case, try it out for a couple weeks and see if you get any improvement! Thankfully it’s reversible, unlike the shot!
