Ive read on here that Endometriosis grows bak n it cOmS bak worse n more painful than before. Maybe i should of had the Hysterectomy im guessing. Please help.....Yours Truely ......x Desperate

Hello, the best answer would to consult the doc who performed the surgery. How detailed was the surgery-what was done for you under lapascopic surgery?
As far as endometriosis-how severe?  Consider, hysterectomy is not to be taken lightly.  You will need at least 6 weeks recovery -no heavy lifting, tugging, pulling, pushing, or long periods of walking, I cannot remember how long you need to refrain from tub baths or swimming (prevents infection)
...Hormonal replacement will need to be considered depending on your age and how you have responded to hormones in the past.
I cannot agree with the the first posting of 4/17.  Please consult your doctor or medical staff who know you.

If this helps, they say after a women has a child 6 to 8 weeks, my wife, 6days, I would think your body will tell you just when you can start again, but start slowly and build it up from there, dont forget lots of lubrication and ease your husband in slowly.
And when my wife had her hyserectomy she could not wait to start again.
Good Luck
PS Remember its your body listen.
