Long period after laporoscopy for stage 4 endometriosis

Posted , 2 users are following.

I had a surgery mid January for my stage 4 endometreosis, they did a laporoscopy (sp?) Anywho Im now on the continuous birth control pill, I already have my tubes tied. I'm 29 with 2 kids, I'm on my first period since surgery and it has lasted a month and still going.... Has anyone ever had this happen? I called the Dr and I'm just told that it's not uncommon but really a month straight and still going that doesn't sound like something to just brush off as nothing

    I had my laparoscopy recently (stage III) and was surprised by a long period afterward...but "long" meant a week and a half, possibly two, weeks. If this goes on--especially if it's heavy--you should see another doctor who will take your concern seriously.

      I've already contacted another Dr after I contacted my cardiologist because now they want to inject me with loupron and put me in a menopause state yet that medication has far too many cardic side effects and I have heart disease so not worth it
