Hi, recently my GP discussed that I may have endometriosis, I have seen a consultant and I am booked in for a laparoscopy in April. I don't have all the associated symptoms I've seen online but my symptoms include painful but not particularly heavy periods, which I take ibuprofen for which helps to manage the pain but can wake me up during the night. I've spotted blood twice for about 8 days before being on my period and a couple of times a year I get pain in my vagina when passing a stool as well general stomach pain whilst on pill usually a week before I'm due on. Really panicking for multiple reasons but I'm worrying that I've over thought the problem and I am being too hasty with the laparoscopy. The symptoms apart from spotting on my period have been ongoing for a couple of years. Just basically asking do you guys think it's worth going ahead with the laparoscopy?
Thank you!!
