I am 17 years old and was diagnosed with endometriosis September of 2005. Under a different OBGYN's care I went through the laproscoptic surgery and all endometriosis was removed. I was put on a form of the pill so I would stay off my period, so that the chances of it growing back would be small; then to control my outrages emotions, I was put on some type of depression pill. For a year and a half i was in pain everyday, still passing clots and bleeding. I never came to peace with it until I went under the care of Dr. Sholty. He took me off all the pills I was on, because they weren't working, and decided to do another surgery. There he removed the rest of the endometriosis and put me on Ovcon 50 and put me on Cymbalta. I've been pain free for almost 5.5 months now. Dr. Sholty is the most caring man I have ever met. He was honest about everything, and made me feel safe and comfortable. I recommend him to any woman who is looking for great care.
