Ovaries attached to bowel

Hello. I've suffered with endometriosis for about 20 years now. Took a long time to diagnose and when they did the cyst was the size of a melon. I have, in total, had 3 laparoscopic operations and an ectopic pregnancy and one tube removed. I have just been told that my endometriosis has attached my ovaries to my bowel. Has anyone else had this and what operation did you have? I have two children and am now 44 so will not be having any further children. I also have adenomyosis. Any advise would be greatly received. Thank you x

Thank you Lindle. I am seeing a specialist on 22nd July to discuss all my options with the endometriosis and the adenomyosis. I am worried about the bowel being involved and hadn't heard of this before. Luckily my pouch of Douglas is free from any endometriosis x
