What are the side effects of medications for endometriosis?
Medications for endometriosis, such as hormonal therapies and pain relievers, can have several side effects. Hormonal treatments might cause weight gain, acne, and mood changes. Long-term use can also lead to bone density loss. Pain relievers, especially nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), can cause gastrointestinal issues and, in rare cases, kidney damage. It's crucial to follow your gynecologist’s advice and have regular check-ups.
