I'm certainly no expert on this, just had it through 1st preg and touches of it this time... However I do know a few women who have developed it, often from pregnancies or when going through menopause. There seems to be a lot of doctors who rush straight to the surgery option when there is another school of thought suggesting there might be a less-invasive hormonal approach. The surgery can be quite painful and doesn't seem seem to have a very high success rate, so perhaps you'd consider seeking some alternative methods first? Maybe talk to a naturopath or even an accupuncturist first?

In my 1st pregnancy it didn't go away immediately, but I started taking a product called 30+ from the chemist which claims to rebalance your hormones (it's produced by Lisa Curry-Kenny) and that worked for me.

Anyway, whatever you decide, just make sure you do lots of research. I know 2 musicians who cannot play anymore after undergoing the surgery...
