Kel, it depends on when in your cycle you had the lap done. My first lap was at O time - I bled for 2 weeks post lap and then went straight into AF without a real break (the post-lap bleeding had eased a bit and then AF started heavy - yay for bleeding 3 weeks straight, not!). I could tell the third week was AF because of the pain (first two weeks were pain-free) as well as the timing. So, that first time, my cycle was the normal length. My second lap was CD4 and it caused O to be delayed by approx 2 weeks (O'd CD29), so the cycle was 2 weeks longer than normal. Funny thing with that was I had my post-lap appt before I O'd and my (former) FS didn't believe me when I said I hadn't O'd yet (his exact words were "you can't know that"). His arrogance always made it a delight to prove him wrong! But I digress...
So, basically, if the lap was done early in your cycle, the stress of the lap can delay O, extending your cycle or even causing it to be annovulatory. If it was done close to O or post-O your cycle will probably be about normal (LP might be a day or two shorter due to the aforementioned stress).
