I've been taking Portia-28 for nearly a year now. I have noticed decreased depression before and during my periods, and that my periods are more regular and definitely less painful and lighter. I have been treated for endometriosis, including having the laproscopy. My periods went from soaking an overnight pad within one hour to being able to wear it for 3-4 hours. My pain went from bed-ridden from 3-5 days to bed ridden one or two days if that.

I take Lybrel to treat endometriosis. I've been told that the only cure for endometriosis would be something that stop your period completely and it definitely seems to be helping. I have a lot less pain because of it.

I was on Seasonale and used the generic form recently and have been on this medication for years. I have had no side effects. I took them because of hormonal migraines every month. Now I only get 4 migraines a year, and they are milder than before. I am able to function and have a life!
