this will be my 2nd lAparoscopy and treatment in 2yrs, has anyone else had multiple laps, I'm concerned. about more scarring tissue and pain as this will be the 5th time this scar has been opened and investigated, I'm just not wanting to continually go through these procedures

I've just had my second lap and if it's any consolation, I had new incisions this time instead of him going into the old ones again, so I've got three new 1cm-ish scars on my belly. Fun! You could always talk to your surgeon, but it's horrible knowing we might need more isn't it! Have they discussed hormones/coil with you to try to stop it coming back so quickly? x

hi I've got the coil in and it's getting removed as gynae said its pointless keeping it in wen it's not making any difference. I've also been on the pill again no difference. the only thing that worked for me was the decapeptyl injection but it was only a trial and they were not willing to do it again as it was a chemical menopause n told me as I was only 41 it wasn't ideal!!!! honestly I'm at the end of my tether ❤️
