i just had a laparoscopy to remove a cyst on my right ovary, however, the doctor found mild endometriosis, and removed them by laser, im 25 and not married,, i have two questions,,
1. will getting pregnant be a problem for me?
2. there are 4 incisions,, aren't they supposed to be 3 ? or was the forth done to remove the endometriosis?

thank you!

If you still have both ovaries, or even one or sometimes, a piece of one, you can get pregnant. Whether or not it will be fast and easy is an individual thing. The mild endo could affect your fertility. Was it recommended that you go on the pill to supress the effects? I have endo and did not find out until I was 42. I got pregnant at 29 with no problems, but I also took BC pills in my 20s which probably kept the severity down. Check with your doctor and be clear that preserving your fertility is a concern.

As for the 4th incision, I have heard of that. Perhaps the doctor needed a better angle or view. Still waaaay better than a full incision.

I wish you well,

I really dont know much about this either but am anxious to hear what you learn since i am in somewhat of a similar situation.   My doctor told me that it does mess with your fertility but does not make it impossible,  Best of luck to you
