Laparoscopic Surgery Reviews

Worked for a year
I have had 3 laparoscopies and they just fpond the same thing.
Working / Worked
I went to the er May 25 2009 and they seen there was no sac in my uterus so they had me come back 2 days later. On May 27 2009 I had an appointment for another ultrasound to see where the sac was attached to. The Dr found the sac in my left tube but I had already lost the baby so it was just the sac left. I had my surgery around 6pm630pm and they were able to just remove the sac so I have both tubes and both ovaries.
It was no joy, but I think I feel the absence of the cyst in a positive way. I'm not even two weeks clear of the surgery yet though.
Had surgery to remove dermoid cyst. The surgery actually stopped my menstruation from coming. Before surgery my cycles were long but after I waited and waited and it had to be induced by provera.
I had a cyst removed.
Working / Worked
After years of suffering I found an amazing doctor who amazing procedures and I finally have relief.
In 2011 I had laparoscopic to remove scar tissue and free left ovary that was located behind my intestines. The left ovary was also was unblocked from the surgery. Received ovarian drilling on both ovaries. Dr drilled over 40 holes in each. My ovaries are 10x the size of a average ovary.
Concurrent endometriois...had it in 2008 and lessened daily pain, but mid cycle and periods are progressively getting worse.
Have had 3 of these. It really seemed to help. The dr explained that what they are doing is actually poking tiny holes in the cysts in order to reduce the size of them. I have gotten pregnant immediatly following this proceedure 2 time!!!
