I was going to read this, but the author takes money from Big Pharma to endorse drugs that cost $10,000 a year for patients and aren't any more effective at managing endo symptoms than pain meds and hormonal contraception. (Receipts: https://icer-review.org/announcements/elagolix-final-report/ and https://www.endowhat.org/blog/2018/8/2/orilissatm-a-significant-advancement-for-endometriosis-patients-or-another-obstacle-to-care and https://endometriosisnews.com/2018/07/24/fda-approves-abbvies-orilissa-for-moderate-severe-endometriosis-pain/ .) In conclusion, hard no. I'll listen to patients and those who truly advocate for them instead.
