>>>Hi Dana, ive had a wedge resection but it was nearly 25 years ago now. I understand that it isnt carried out much any more. I read somewhere that there was a far greater risk of adhesions after this surgery. Basically, it is as it sounds. A triangular shaped wedge is taken out of the ovary and it is then sewn back up again. For some reason this seems to bring back periods (it did for me) Look up some of the medical sites. There may be more information on there. All the best.

I have PCOS. I was diagnosed about 4 years ago. I too don't have periods regular. The longest I have
ever went was 6 months in between period. I am 5'2" and weight about 130#.The only real
PCOS symptoms I show are no periods. I was diagnosed with an ultrasound then I had
Lap surgery to confirm it. I tried the clomid, glugaphage, provera, inseminations and nothing happened.
We gave up and decided to adopt. After not having a period for 6 months and having a black period(gross)we
decided to see the doctor again. This time he did a ovarian drilling on 3-26-2003.
My 1st period following was 4-11-2003 and I showed ovualation.YEH
We are waiting now to see if I got pregnant but if I didn't this time at least
I have a chance now with regular periods...
They went in lap(thru bellow button and about pelvis)and drilled about 12 holes in
each ovary. For whatever reason, it regulates the hormones and your body thinks it
is normal now. This is not a forever fix.. It could last from 1yr to forever. It person
varies. I had it done on a Wed and was back to work on Mon. The only thing I noticed
was my actual ovaries were really sore for about 2wks... Good luck
Nancy
I hope this helps
Nancy
