Hi everyone, hope all his doing well.

Just looking for others experience post endo scratch.

I had mine done this time last month, followed by dull cramps for few days. Unfortunately my IVF cycle didn’t go ahead due to me having an ovarian cyst.

Anyways I was fine for the rest of the month and last night I started getting the same dull pain I had after my scratch. It was uncomfortable that it woke me up middle of the night ( I rarely have any ovulation/period cramps like this)

I’m thinking this is happening because I’ve had the scratch and around this time in my cycle my lining tends to thicken. The ache is bearable just uncomfortable at the moment.

Just wanted to know if anyone else felt cramps/aches of the scratch for at least one or two months after the scratch ?? I know the scratch should be effective for that period of time but wasn’t sure if I also be experiencing dull aches

P.s We also been trying naturally this month but not getting my hopes too high on that side x

Hope you get helpful replies to your post The scratch can be successful - seems the repair process following it can help with implantation and the effect can last 2/3 months Not sure re the discomfort lasting - maybe should call clinic / nurse for advice

Good luck for the future
