Continuous spotting for 3months after laparoscopy

I was on implanon for 6years and I took it out so we can start trying for a baby, then my symptoms started. After suffering for over a year of terrible pain and infertility (I have a 8 year old and I’m 37 ), I was referred to gynaecologist. In the month of august, I had a diagnostic laparoscopy which showed I had severe endometriosis. Gynaecologist says he managed to get it all out. No bleeding after procedure, however after my first menstrual period in September, I have be experiencing ongoing spotting which I never had before the procedure. Gynaecologist advised I take the combined pill which will stop ovulation to manage symptoms for 6months or try getting pregnant and yes we are trying😥. My question, have anyone taken the combined pill and did it work or have you experienced spotting after laparoscopy and how did it stop?

Help please!

Sandy.

Mine is different but some similarities. I had laparoscopy in Aug too and was given coil. I had spotting for 2 months continuously with one period in middle. Then nothing since mid-Oct. Some other symptoms and at my 10 week phonecall my gynae just said give everything 6m to settle before changing anything as it was a significant op.

Thank you so much for your message. I have spoken to a few of my gynaecology friends and they have said to give it time to settle. I just hope it stops soon… the spotting is getting in the way of everything especially as we are TTC. I’ll keep you updated of any changes.
