Does endo come back?

I had a laparoscopy 2 years ago to have endometriosis removed and was so much better afterwards.Recently I've been struggling with pelvic pains quite regularly and am worried perhaps it's come back?

Has anyone had it removed twice?

Yes, to put it simply it can definitely come back. I had surgery in 2022 and they removed a small portion of the endometriosis I had

I had surgery again in 2024 and that spot had grown back, further to that it had spread and grown in new areas compared to the first surgery.

Many individuals go through multiple surgeries but the timeline isn't the same for everyone

The best thing if you're experiencing worsening symptoms again is to go get yourself checked out
