Endo help please?!

[Jayamye]

I am 20 years old and have been diagnosed with endo in june when i underwent a laparoscopy. The drs found a significant amount of endo and said that they had removed it, but i am still in a lot of pain. I have had two periods this month which isn't fun for anyone normally, but its just cruel for someone with endo! I have been looking into a tubal ligation as it is reversible and i would love to have children in the future. Does anyone have any experience with this? did it help at all?. i dont want to get a hysterectomy if possible as i do really want children, but i am finding it too hard being in pain all the time and trying to keep up with life too which still happens in the background, such as work and studying for the degree i am currently working towards. If anyone can help, please do! i would really appreciate it!

Are you considering a tubal ligation to help prevent problems with pregnancy later? If so I haven't heard of that and I will have to look around. A hysterectomy will not cure endo if that is what you have been told. Excision of endometriosis is the gold standard to remove Endo.

Was your surgeon an Endo specialist? That is key as most obgyn don't have the experience or skill when it comes to Endo.

I have endometriosis as well so I understand how hard living in constant pain is. If you had any on your Fallopian tubes, you run the risk of it coming back and you don't want it to scar where you're going to need to have your tubes untied.  have you tried hormonal therapies to keep your symptoms under control? There's a really great group on Facebook "ENDometriosis" with thousands of girls who have been through it all, you should join if you have fb.
