View allI'm really concerned because I know someone who's used abortion pills like misoprostol to terminate pregnancies without talking to a doctor first. Are there any dangers with doing this? Could it have any effects on her body or future pregnancies? I'm just worried about the possible risks she might be facing.

I'm 35 with a 5-year-old kid and have been dealing with severe stomach pain during my periods. Multiple doctors diagnosed me with endometriosis it was 8.3 mm in the last scan and now 8 mm. They recommended surgery, but I'm hoping to treat it with medicine. Right now, I'm taking Dinogest 2mg daily. Can endometriosis this size be cured with meds, and how long might it take to see improvement?
Severe stomach pain during periods, especially if linked to a diagnosis of endometriosis, suggests the need for a comprehensive approach to pain management and potentially further investigation into the condition. While a slight decrease in the lesion size (8.3mm to 8mm) might be considered a minor change, it's not necessarily indicative of a positive or negative trend and warrants further evaluation.
