Hi! I had a hysterectomy too, when my pain wasn’t better after an expert excision. Turns out my uterus was just “angry” for no good reason! If you have any questions or want to talk about it feel free to message me! I had mine at 20

A hysterectomy is not a cure. Get the laparoscopy and make sure they excise it.

I would NOT get a hysterectomy if I were you it actually does not cure endo. I would read this book Beating Endo: How to Reclaim Your Life from Endometriosis Book by Amy Stein and Dr Iris Kerin Orbuch. My gyno said medicine and surgery were my only options but that wasn’t true at all! Most doctors even gynecologists don’t actually know a lot about endo.

thanks I understand what you are saying. There's other problems too which I didn't explain. I've had 9 miscarriages in 10 years. And I've been told I will never be able to have another baby as when I was beaten up and pregnant at the same time, my ex damaged all my insides so that's the reason why I can carry over 3 months and always losing. I was told that it doesn't solve endometriosis. But there is other problems too. My cervix is all messed up and more so I think that's why they suggested this too
