Re: adhesion discovery

My understanding is that neither adhesions nor endo can be detected via ultrasound -- although a vaginal ultrasound will give your doctor a better sense of what might be going on and where the pain points are. The vaginal ultrasound (although it hurt) definitely seemed superior to a general ultrasound. Endo/adhesions are too deep to see with an ultrasound -- best, Jennifer At Mon, 20 Oct 2003, Courtney wrote: >
