Period after laparoscopy

[kitscat]

Hi there

I had laparoscopy with resection of endometriosis 10weeks ago, stage 4. I’ve had 2 periods since then. I’m just on day 4 of my 2nd period and I’m bleeding so much heavier that I did before my op. Bright red pain, some clots, a little pain but a lot less severe than I had pre-op. But the flow is so much heavier. We are trying for a baby now too.

Did anybody have anything similar?

Thanks so much xx

Me!! My consultant was honest & admitted it wouldn’t improve my periods (which were like yours mine made me anaemic) only using pill etc would do that but like you I wanted to conceive but he did say hopefully the surgery would improve my fertility( had been TTC 7 years then & had a early miscarriage year which followed 2 more ops for endo) I fell 2nd cycle of trying & had my daughter in June this year.

I hope this can offer hope.

The anti inflammatory diet eased the bowel symptoms I also took bed propolis very healing, used progesterone cream & took baby aspirin until my BFP when I took progesterone pessaries & low dose steroids for my raised nk cells till I was 12 weeks which I believe kept my daughter safe.

Good luck I hope the surgery had done the trick & you fall soon xxx

Thank you so much for your reply. Huge congratulations for your successful story. I’m trying to stay positive.

What dose if steroid were you on? Did you have a biopsy for your raised NK cells? Did you take any supplements? Xxx

Hi, I'm. Almost 8 weeks since laparoscopy and endemetriosis lazered off. I've just had my second period which was pretty sore but not as bad as excruciating pains I've had before . Both periods were really heavy. I was hoping my body was just settling and insides healing after op but I'm not sure. I'm also trying to conceive but don't think it's going to happen x
