Question

Are you in the same boat?

I'm just wondering if anyone else here had laparoscopy and/or hysteroscopy surgeries for endometriosis recently? I did almost 7 weeks ago and I am curious to know how long you were ttc before and if you've started again yet? How your cycles are now? I'd really like to find a buddy who is or has gone through the same experience. Please answer or message me. Thank you.

I've had two laps. One was November 2013 (diagnostic) and one was April 2014 (treatment). I have had some weird cycles (longer, shorter), but then I've often had weird cycles anyway. Mine range from 18 to 35 days. I've also had IVF and i found that being on the hormones also alters my cycle lengths a bit. Not sure exactly what you want to know, but feel free to look through my journal to entries from around that time. I remember feeling really rough initially with issues around nausea, urination and constipation being key worries. I also worried about hairs that had been sewn into a stitch and fearing that one of my stitches had opened. Some of how you feel and your recovery depends on the work done. I had a hysteroscopy, biopsies and scraping of the uterus that coincided with Day 1 of my period. I had quite a lot of work done on the second lap and felt burning sensations for about a week after. You'll get there!


5 years TTC. Endometriosis and adenomyosis. Surgery. 2 IVFs. No joy. Low ovarian reserve. Is there any real hope? DE IVF = next step. Much higher success rates, but so used to things not working, it's hard to feel too hopeful. Wishing others an easier time.

Hi Mammoth. So, have you been ttc for 2 years since your last lap? My cycles have been the same (normal) before and after my lap, except my last period was horrendous. If we are unsuccessful in the next 3 months we will try insemination.
