Having my first laparoscopy in a week, any advice?

Hi all, I am having my first laparoscopy for endometriosis a week from today. I am a 22 y/o female and I have been having symptoms for years now. I am very grateful to finally be getting the surgery that we all hope for at some point, but I am nervous to what post-surgery life is like. Can anyone tell me about their experience and shed any thoughts of wisdom? Thanks!

  1. I wanted to wish you good luck with your laparoscopy! I hope your doctor can give you some clear answers from your results! We have lots of articles that talk about post surgery healing. Our members here are very familiar with the process, so feel free to ask questions. Here's a list of some resources that I think you'll find helpful.
