Has a laparoscopy made it worse? :(

I'm twenty only symptom was pain during intercourse after a long road I had my lap jan 7th and they excised my endometriosis that they said before my lap I definatley didn't have! Since my lap, the pain during intercourse is still there but less intense, but now I get more pain after sex, which never happened before, also sometimes I can feel dull aching in my stomach , particularly on the lower left side, also now every time I go to the toilet not just around my period can cause a pain in the same spot, this can happen even if I need a wee! None of these things happened before I feel like the lap has given me more symptoms not taken them away! Sorry if tmi but I have no idea what to do now , can Endo come back that quickly or is it scar tissue perhaps or something else! Any ideas :( xx

I'm not sure what is going on with you but it really can take months for things to settle after lap maybe give it a little more time

Best wishes

I hope we all find a treatment soon, I just really pinned my hopes on having pain relief after surgery, not more problems x

Ever since my lap in April last year.. My symptoms have got worse I went back to my gyno for a follow up about a month later and he said it was normal to still be in pain after a laproscophy.. But it never really got any better .. Maybe for 2 months but that was all and before I never had paib during intercourse but now I do. It's mad isn't it. Hope u get some answers xx

I go back to the pain clinic in May , but can't understand why the lap has made it worse, and if it will actually get better x
