Does IUD help in heavy bleeding caused by endometriosis and endometrioma

Please advice if anyone has gone for IUD for heavy bleeding. I am suffering from heavy bleeding, have been detected with Endometriosis and chocolate cyst. I was on luprodex 3.75 injection for six months which stopped my periods. Now when I have periods back, nothing has changed . Please advise.

  1. hi there! Thank you for being here and for your question. I have not had personal experience with IUD's, so I hope others do chime in here. I did just want to acknowledge your question though and say, I have known others who have found the IUD to be helpful for them and their bleeding. Everyone is different though. Some found it worse for them.


    I found a few articles our members have shared about the IUD and I thought I would share them here while we wait for others to chime in. They may be filled with some helpful information or comments from the community!
