In March of '06 i had this done...I think it worked a little...my periods are more regular, but i dont think that it was 100% succesfull...some of the side affect were obviosly some pain, as well as some discomfort in the pelvic region, it really wasnt that much different than any other surgery @ least to me.

Om May 27th I had an appointment for another ultrasound to see if I had an eptopic pregnancy because the baby wasn't in my uterus. The dr found the baby in my left tube and but I had already lost the baby so it was just the sac left. I had my surgery around 6pm630pm. They were able to just remove the sac so I have both tubes and bother ovaries.
