Hi,I hope somebody could give me a bit of advice. I had a laparoscopy done in 2005 for some pain on ovulation,but mostly as the gynocologist found a mass on my ovary.they found no mass and told me to have the mirena fitted.i didn't have the mirena and just took painkillers every month.skip to 2014 have severe ovary pain everyday which is excruciating went on the pill Yasmin which helped slightly after two weeks,went back to gynocologist who put me on decaptyl for three months (my last injection being on the 3rd of this month) which has been amazing nearly all the pain has gone.my question is,does this prove I have endo?and should I have another laparoscopy? I feel I do have this hence the terrible pain,but laparoscopy ten years ago didn't say anything about endo?. please any ideas would be greatly recieved.

    Hey, I just wanted to share with you my story, I had been having severe abdominal pain for over a year when i had a emergency laprosocopy, they had to drain a cyst but they looked around and apparently found no endomertriosis. so I went back to my gp who repeatedly told me there was no possible chance i had it and then told me it was all in my head and tried to blame it on past traumas id had in my past, then i moved back with my parents after a break up and got a new doctor in the area and honestly this doctor changed my life, she told me she believed me, refferred me to gynea, told them she wanted me to have a laproscopy which after trying different pills and injections they agreed to do, and last week after 3 years of fighting i got my diagnosis of endometriosis. so please dont stop fighting especially if the pain comes back (god forbid) they might be uneasy doing a laprsocopy 'just to say you have endometriosis' as they said to me but its well worth asking! keep fighting xxx
