I had my lap this morning and I’ve just come home.

I have a tiny dot of endo on my uterus on the right and side and that’s it,it’s tiny she said.

My tubes are clear,there’s no adhesions,no scar tissue.

They didn’t treat the tiny dot,they said they just recommended taking the pill.

I asked would it stop me having children and they said deffo not.

What stage will I be?

I’ve been discharged from Gyno apparently

Why didn’t they laser the dot away do you think?

Hello if you only have one area it'll definitely be counted as minimal/ stage 1.

I'm not sure why they wouldn't remove what they found, it makes sense for them too even if it is only a small area.

Maybe stage 1,2 or 3? They should have removed it. Clearly they were not trained to remove it properly, maybe they were not experienced endo excision surgeons.

I'm glad it was mild and the tubes are ok!

Hi! perhaps it was deemed small enough to keep dampened down by taking a progesterone pill(not necessarily a contraceptive pill) and if they tried to laser it they may have damaged surrounding tissue. I am aware that Endo can come back as I had a total of 3 Laps to tidy me up. It seems you have been left in limbo, could you go to your GP and ask for an explanation to ease your concern? So pleased all tubes are clear & good luck.

Not what you're looking for?
