I'm 16 and my doctor thinks I have endo so I'm going to see a gynaecologist. If she is pretty sure I have endo will I definitely have to get a laparoscopy? Feeling really nervous about it

Hi the only way to confirm endo is with a laparoscopy. It's actually not as bad as you think. And if it is endo then at least you can get treatment. Good luck and try not to worry.

Don't be nervous they are they're to help. They might or should do a Mri scan first so ask for this as it's pain free and they can be sure before they do a lap.

don't worry about it xxx
