Question

I am thinking of cancelling my op.

I am due to have a laparoscopy in two weeks and I am seriously considering cancelling it. I am so worried about the things I have heard. The pain, scarring, period for weeks on end and that it probably won't work. I keep thinking is it worth all this?

Hi lipsylisa...
I wanted to ask u .. What's the lap being done for???
I have had mine done a month back along with ovarian drilling n it didn't give me any issues... Waiting for AF to arrive n start a new cycle...
A bit on the history would help.. And I'm sure everyone's anxious initially but I would recommend it if it helps u in any way !!
Good luck :)

Hi, is exploratory surgery. I had failed hsg as cervix is too narrow. They said it they will clean it up a bit if needed. I am just having serious doubts as to why I am putting my body through surgery . I am 38 and a mother of 3. I think this ttc has driven me bonkers!

Hi again... Lisa... If it's just exploratory I'm not really sure what you should do as surgery is a big deal and I myself postponed it long enough until a uterine polyp had to be removed and I had no other option!!
On the other bright side you are already a lucky mom of three beautiful kids... I think personally I would not go for it... But that's just in my opinion!!
You should definitely talk it out with family members and maybe take opinions ...
All the luck to u... :)

I cancelled. I did my research and found that having a laparoscopy to confirm endo and or pcos or to remove e mild to moderate endo/scarring/cysts does not have any conclusive evidence that it helps to conceive. It is not the right direction for me and will leave it up to nature. I will post if I get a BFP :)
