I just had a laparoscopy yesterday and my doctor removed endometriosis and scar tissue, as well as removed some sort of "pocket" behind my uterus. My question is, has anyone conceived after having endometriosis removed and if so, how long did it take?

I hope you're feeling well today! One of the bloggers had a lap, maybe Mrs. Pink?

@fotolori1: I had a lap in January of this year and we are still TTC although we have MFI as well so I might not be a good example. I found that my recovery was pretty quick once the crazy shoulder pain went away
-
I can't speak for myself, but my sister had this done and she conceived the next month. I'm not sure if it was coincidental or not though. Good luck!!
-
Thanks everyone! I hope we can conceive pretty quickly!Next month would be great!
@mrswin: what is MFI? I totally know what you mean about the shoulder pain! Still hasnt gone away.
-
@fotolori1: Good luck! I hope that you bounce back quickly and get that BFP soon
-
@lovelyplum thank you! Have you gotten your positive yet??

I have endometriosis and had a couple laps for it. The first was when I was 19 and then another when I was 22 or 23....anyways, I managed to conceive 3 times, each on the second month of trying. I had other issues, but they were not related to my endo at all!
And I've known a few people who got pregnant right after their laps

@fotolori1: Sorry MFI = Male Factor Infertility
I probably made by SO re-warm the hot pack every half hour for the first two days after the surgery because it was the only thing that helped with the pain
-
Everyones words are so encouraging!!! Thanks so much.

My aunt had one after two years of infertility. Conceived very shortly after and now has four gorgeous kids.
I hope this works the same for you! -
@fotolori1: I did
I'm 16w6d today...eek! Thanks so much for thinking of me -
@fotolori1: My mom had this done ... in the 90's. She was able to conceive about 5 years later, but I'm not certain how actively they were trying between the surgery & conception.
Also, I imagine today's surgery is much better & more precise, meaning that the parts you need for conceiving are left more intact.
Best of luck! Thinking of you for a quick recovery!!

@lovelyplum... that is AWESOME! Congratulations!!!! Im so happy for you!
@vegmama: I am do excited to see if I conceive quickly! Thank you! I am feeling ok! Just a little sore and sleepy.
