WORKED FOR ABOUT 5 YRS. AM DUE FOR ANOTHER LASER .

It worked on my first 2 surgerys, pain went away. However after my 3 surgery, I am still having issues with bleeding and cramping

I have had 4. This along with a hysteroscopy back in 2003, allowed me to become pregnant & carry to full term. My last was in May of 2007.

Not really. Some relief. They won't remove any Endometrius or adhesions now, they're worried it'll affect my fertility - being 36 and so far childless, I want a family and so as yet am unwilling to take that risk myself either.

It was my second time having laser surgery and it was way less painful this time. I healed very well, not too much pain and took about 2-3 weeks to completely heal over.
