Laproscopy - Is it worth it? Posted 2016
I have irregular periods, cramps, and my right ovary aches all the time. I had an US and it showed a cyst on my right ovary. My doctor wants to do a laproscopy to confirm endometriosis. I've read this procedure can cause additional scarring and increase infertility. I've also read that while it might take care of the pain for now, it may come back in a few months/years (but it always comes back). We have been ttc #1 for 13 months with a mc at the 9 month mark.
Is it worth the pain to have the laproscopy done? Did it help or hinder you from getting pregnant? What is the benefit to having it done?
Thank you so much for your insight. I'm just trying to make the most informed choice possible.
