Unfortunately each centre has different waiting times. If you call them they should be able to give you some idea. I went to Guys and it took about three months from referral to first appointment and then a further six months to surgery.

I am in the same boat as you. I have just been diagnosed with sever endometriosis on the bowel through a laparoscopy (1 week ago). I am also trying to get pregnant but my gyn has not suggested IVF.

I'm now waiting to go back and see my gyn in a couple of weeks then have an MRI - I'm not sure what this is for. Maybe to see how affected the bowel is.

I was told my second surgery will be "in a few months" which is not very specific.

I hope you get seen soon and the surgery help with the pain. I am desperate for that and just hope it works!
