Laparoscopy - how often have you had them?

Hi everyone,

I had my first lap 4 weeks ago to diagnose and remove cysts and endo. I know the chance of it coming back is high and I know it’s different for everyone but how long has it taken for you to suspect it’s grown back and how many and how often have you had laparoscopies?

I’ve been actively trying to conceive for 2.5 years but haven’t used contraception for a lot longer... my doctor said to give it 6 months after the lap before starting the ivf process (having to go private and pay). Has anyone been successful in conceiving shortly after a lap? And how long has it taken for you?

Thanks 🙂
