Re: Endometriosis & Scared
I had the laparoscopy back in December , after my doctor suspected I had endometriosis. The procedure confirmed I did have endo, and it was removed during the laparscopy. I was uncomfortable for a few weeks following the proceudre, but back to work in less than a week. It really isn't as scary as you are thinking!
I was told that since the endo was removed, I will be 'ok' for awhile .. but the endo can return. If you are thinking about TTC in the near future, its a good idea to remove the endo, since it improves your chances of conception.
But everyone's case is different and there is a good chance they won't find endo at all, so try not to worry!
If you do a search on these boards for 'endometriosis' you will find a couple of threads with some valuable information -
