Frequently Asked Questions

Endometriosis & Adhesions

What causes endometriosis?

The root cause of endometriosis is not known, but it is believed that hormones (estrogen and progesterone) and genetics both play a roll. Retrograde menstrual flow may also allow some endometrial cells to escape into the abdomen via the fallopian tubes.

How is endometriosis diagnosed?

Endometriosis is often suspected based on symptoms, findings during physical examinations, or an ultrasound. A definitive diagnosis is usually only made at time of surgery when visual inspection is possible.

What are the stages of endometriosis?

Endometriosis is classified into one of four stages (I-minimal, II-mild, III-moderate, and IV-severe) depending on location, extent, and depth of endometriosis implants; presence and severity of adhesions; and presence and size of ovarian endometriomas.

What is an endometrioma or 'chocolate cyst'?

An endometrioma is a blood-filled cyst that can occur when endometriosis tissue develops in the ovary. By definition, a patient with endometrioma has "severe" or stage IV endometriosis.

What are the symptoms of endometriosis?

Endometriosis symptoms may include swollen or bloated lower abdomen, heavy bleeding, prolonged and/or painful periods sometimes with excessive blood clots, nausea, fatigue, anemia, bleeding between periods, frequent urination, lower back pain, pain during sex, and fertility problems.

Does endometriosis make my stomach look larger?

Endometriosis can cause abdominal swelling due to excess fibrin in the uterine wall which can make your stomach appear larger.

Why do I need to urinate so frequently?

Endometriosis and the associated adhesions can impinge on bladder capacity depending on their size and position.

Is endometriosis causing my diarrhea, constipation and bowel pain?

Endometriosis and its adhesions can be positioned such that they press on the colon and small intestine which can interfere with normal bowel function. This is often mistaken for IBD (inflammatory bowel disease).

Could endometriosis be causing my backaches?

Yes. Backaches are a common complaint of women who suffer with endometriosis.

How Endovan Works

What is Endovan?

Endovan is an all-natural and hormone-free capsule formulated to quickly and safely increase the body's inherent fibrinolytic activity to help degrade excess fibrin that is the primary cause of adverse symptoms in women with fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, and fibrocystic disease.

How does Endovan work?

Endovan works by boosting your body's ability to degrade excess fibrin buildup.

Using Endovan

How much should I take?

Take one capsule two times per day with 8 ounces of water. While it's not necessary that Endovan be taken with food, it is often easiest to time the doses in that manner.

How soon will I notice results?

Results will depend on the severity of symptoms but most women notice improvement in the first one to two months with continued progress in subsequent months.

How long will I need to take Endovan?

Some women take Endovan for a few months at a time as symptoms occur and some women stay on it continually. If your body is prone to making excess fibrin then the unfortunate reality is that it may need ongoing management.

What to expect on Endovan

How can I tell if Endovan is working?

The simplest way to tell whether Endovan is working is to track the frequency and severity of your symptoms and note the difference while on Endovan.

Will I feel uncomfortable?

Some women with fibroids, ovarian cysts, and/or endometriosis report mild cramping initially. In addition, you may feel a little extra swelling in the affected area(s). This is normal and will resolve as your body works to rid your system of the excess fibrin. You may skip a dose at any time if these temporary effects become bothersome.

Where does the fibrin go?

As your body degrades abnormal fibrin it is processed by the body as waste and is naturally expelled in the urine and with the normal menstrual flow.

Will I notice any change in my urine?

Maybe. Some women do report a slightly darkened urine when taking Endovan as the body flushes the excess fibrin.

Will my periods by heavier?

Some women do notice a more watery flow during the first cycle or two. This is normal and is a result of your body processing the excess fibrin. You may skip a dose at any time if this temporary effect becomes bothersome.

Will I see any spotting between periods?

You may. Some women do notice a mild spotting during their first couple cycles. This is a transient issue and happens as your abnormal fibrin is broken down and flushed from your system.

Will Endovan shrink my swollen stomach?

If your swollen stomach is due to underlying fibroids, cysts, or endometrial adhesions then you will notice it resolving as your body naturally breaks down the fibrin.

Why do I sometimes feel more swollen in my breasts or abdomen when taking Endovan?

As fibrin is deteriorated by your system you may notice a slight increase in swelling or firmness in the affected area(s). This is temporary and a sign that your immune system is working to degrade the abnormal fibrin.

Endovan & Weight Loss

Why have I gained weight with this condition?

Fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and breast lumps all involve some degree of inflammation which - in addition to signalling the production of excess fibrin - causes the body to produce cortisol, a glucocorticoid steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands. An increase in cortisol production is known to result in increased abdominal fat storage as well as fluid retention.

Will Endovan help me lose this weight?

Endovan isn't for weight loss, but as your body resolves the excess fibrin and the inflammation is reduced, it will naturally cease the call for increased cortisol. With normal cortisol levels you may find it easier to lose weight.

Menopause

Is Endovan effective for women nearing, in, or past menopause?

Yes, and they may notice results more quickly as the reproductive hormones that contribute to abnormal fibrin growth naturally decline.

What if I'm undergoing hormone therapy?

Since estrogen and progesterone contribute to fibrin growth, you may see slower results than you otherwise would.

Will Endovan work if my periods have become irregular or ceased altogether?

Yes. Endovan will still help your body break down excess fibrin and will be aided by the fact that your reproductive hormones will be moderating.

Will I notice any bleeding or spotting while taking Endovan?

Perhaps. Some women with fibroids and/or endometriosis do report minor spotting for a short time when starting Endovan.

How will I know Endovan is working if I no longer have a period?

Without period-related symptoms, you'll want to watch for improvement in the other areas of common complaint such as swollen or bloated abdomen; pelvic pain and pressure; frequent urination; back pain; and pain during intercourse.

Fertility

Does Endovan affect fertility?

Fertility can improve if the underlying issue is caused by your fibroids, ovarian cysts, or endometrial adhesions.

Can I take Endovan while trying to conceive?

Endovan has not been studied in pregnancy. If trying to conceive, please discuss with your doctor before using Endovan.
