bilateral ovary date January

[Zanlancaster]

how do you know when ur making the right decision .. help! stressed!!

quick background..

ivf x 3 to success. Ten year ago

Laparoscopy eight years ago - superficial endometriosis

Pain ever since every other month one side.

last six months pain stabbing left ovary - scan couldn’t find that ovary behind bowel but endometrioma on other side.

decapeptyl injection to confirm it’s ovary and endo because I have a large scar across stomach from spinal fusion so could also be scar tissue.

Injection brutal side effects so think going ahead with ovaries and tubes out and she said she can remove superficial endo but not if more severe. She kept saying it may not sure cure the pain - am I sure etc. I’m 50.

Can you ever be sure?! I have time to change mind but the pain before the injection was horrendous.. I think I know it’s right answer but any thoughts may help me 😊

I think I would grab it with both hands I'm 51 and struggling to get any help at all and the pain is dreadful. If the injection helps the pain then surely having it all removed would take it away? Good luck with it.

Thank you - I think so too. Sorry you’re struggling too.

I would give anything to have it all out. My cervix is now fused to my bowel with endo. Go for it x

Thanks for replying .. I suspect I have left it too long snd she thinks bowel problems to follow. I hope you get better x
