Oh thank you, because they didn't see any active Endo they said they didn't do anything apart from putting the coil in so I'm probably going to still be in pain cause I thought Endo was a chronic condition

Hmmm I am going to ask around about the "pelvis is worn" I have never heard that term. Endo can be microscopic as well it can have many colours, textures etc and its possible your surgeon missed it as some are not educated to understand what it looks like just the obvious endo.

One of the reason is that Endometriosis will grow back if it is not properly removed from the root. If a regular OBGYN is doing your surgeries then most likely it wasn't an Endo specialist. Without making you feel defeated it is quite possible this surgery will end up with the same results.

If you do still have any issues after I would recommend a good surgeon. Let me know where you are and I can give you some names of some tops surgeons around you.
