Has anyone had a midline laparotomy to remove extensive endo nodules and adhesions? Recently started having period pain and not sure why?

I had a midline laparotomy 7 weeks ago and endo was removed from my bowel, rectovaginal area, Fallopian tube and ovary. I felt like I was recovering well and have been told all the endo has been removed, but about 10 days ago I started having mild period-type pain which has been getting worse every day. I have the mirena coil and am taking the pill back to back to stop my periods so I'm really confused as to why I'm in pain. Has anyone else had this sort of surgery? Is the pain due to healing in the areas they've removed endo from or could it be something else? Any advice is much appreciated xx
