Diagnosed with Endometriosis - so confused!!

Hi all, I had a diagnostic lap 2 weeks ago, just got back from seeing my consultant and he confirmed I have endometriosis and diagnosed it as "moderate". My appointment was so quick and he didn't say about lasering it off or where it was. I have been referred to a fertility specialist to see if it will affect my fertility. He did say it hasn't affected my tubes. Anyone got any advice? I'm not having treatment as trying for a baby x

Not very helpful but my follow up appointment was exactly the same, I'm glad I'm not the only person in this position.

He told me I had endo, it hadn't damaged my tubes and then practically pushed me out of the door without any other information. Left me with more questions than I started with, and no support, information or advice on what to expect and how to deal with any of it.

Not what you're looking for?
