Hi Juanita,

Sorry to hear about the loss of one of your ovaries. I am in a similar boat and would also love to hear some pregnancy tips. My Gynae has also suggested IVF, but I'm trying to give the next 6 months after my lap a natural try. I also wonder if I should start IVF or wait. I am 34 with Stage 1V endo. Last month my period was late, and I had sore breasts and pains in my abdomen and ovaries, and also wondered if I was pregnant, but wasn't. Having had a recent lap, I wondered if this pain was due to the operation and parts healing a bit after laser surgery, or is it just the endo! I am having different sharper pains in a variety of spots in my abdomen since surgery. These pains are different to the aches and tugging I still get during ovulation and period. Has anyone else had changes in the type of pain they experience after a lap?.

Hang in there, Fiona
