Surgery cancelled due to high blood pressure
I was due to have a

Period time and operation 😩
Hi all I am due a laparoscopic procedure next week and it is the time of the month. I am worried it will happen on the day. I have been told of a pill that can delay my period, should I take this. Or can the procedure be done whilst on a period? I cannot delay the operation I have waited 4 years

laproscopy recovery average timescale?
Hi all! I am very very aware that we are all different, and we all heal at different speeds. So this question is just for an idea of what most people have found post surgery! I know it could be totally different for me, so please don't worry about me thinking that the time scale will be definitely

Egg collection before laparoscopy?
Is anyone aware of whether it's possible to have eggs harvested while waiting for a
laparoscopy
to remove an ovarian cyst and fibroids?

Laparoscopy advice
I’m due to have my second
laparoscopy
on Thursday and cautious that I’ll come on my period that day. I was due to start on Monday but, as they’re irregular, I haven’t come on yet. Can you still have your
laparoscopy
whilst on your period??!

Laparoscopic Surgery - help
Hi all, I have been in this forum a while whilst under investigation for my symptoms. I fought for a referral to gynaecologist who was extremely unhelpful initially, and quite clearly hadn’t read my notes. After going back and forth in my consultation he decided to schedule the lap, I’m waiting on

Having mirena coil fitted
I had a mirena coil fitted when I was 18 but it was during my
laparoscopy
so I obviously wasn’t aware of it being inserted. Some complications and changes, it ended up ‘falling’ down. Then tried the implant and then the pill.

I have a MRI tomorrow and I was just wondering if they talk you through the results of the MRI there and then or if you have to wait for a follow up appointment?

Another Laparoscopy? Help!
Hey so some of you may know me and my story. For those that don't here's a summary; I'm 37, I've been diagnosed with Endometriosis in 2017 through my diagnostic lap, the specialist performed an excision around my bladder and uterus (stage 4). In 2018 I had a planned further excision of endo from my bowel

Painful belly button
Hi, Since my period began last week I've had a painful belly button. My lap scar is swollen, red and today has begun leaking brown and clear fluid. It looks like there is maybe loose skin like a burst blister in there? My last operation was 2 years ago. It hurts to the touch and when I bend over.

Help! Decapeptyl injection and HRT?
I have been offered a Decapeptyl 3month injection and HRT, and been told the
laparoscopy
waiting list is at least 6months+; but there’s a lot of risks for a lap because my bowel is stuck to my womb (been told I could end up with an ileostomy or colostomy bag!)
