Hi Everyone,
I had a laparoscopy in 2001 after 2 unsuccessful IVF attempts where quite a bit of endo was removed and was told that it could possibly come back within two years. I don't remember how long I had to wait to do another cycle but we ended up having another 3 cycles before I fell pregnant naturally in 2003 having not had to have another laparoscopy. In 2007 I fell pregnant with my DD (using embryos we had frozen from before I fell pregnant with my DS). As far as I am aware my endo never came back. My wound never bled but it took about a week for the bloating to ease.
I hope this is of some help. I wish all of you the best.
I can't remember how long it took the bloating to settle after th first one but it did take a while after the second one - probably near 2 weeks to fully go away. If you still have a wound that is bleeding a little bit, just keep an eye on it for infection etc and mke sure that it is covered with a clean dressing. It may not hurt to ask your gyno about it.
Thanks for the reply, I actually went to the after hours GP on Saturday as I was quite concerned. I found out that I did have an infection so they have put me on antibiotics. I thought maybe it was something I had done but she said it can be quite common and would of most likely occured in hospital! Because I had never had it done before I thought it was normal, I seem to be on the mends now but am glad I went to the GP on Saturday.
Thanks again.
