Everyone's different some ppl it will come back as soon as it was lazered off others it might take months years but it's best for it to be excised for the best possible chance of having it not return for the longest time possible x

Would you not expect it to come back so quickly with it being excised? X

No because it gets cut from the root gives you a longer time for it to grow back xx

I had a lap in Feb this year and symptoms came back end of April. Consultant think it’s growing back already. Now on zoladex to help the situation x

Oh I’m so sorry☹️ how were you controlling the endo after the lap before you went onto zoladex? X

I was told at my last lap (2.5 yrs ago) given my age if I took the mini pill I had a low chance of it coming back. I had to take a combined pill for 3 months last summer to clear up a bad case of acne, then went back onto mini pill. I then began getting sporadic symptoms in January, these became a few times a week by April and I am now getting constant issues. I don't know if it would have come back had I not had that pill with estrogen in.

My cysts come back straight away, however as far as I know the Endo in the pelvis that was excised has stayed away
