Has Anyone Had A Seriously Impossible Time Getting A Laparoscopy?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

ve been experiencing symptoms of endometriosis since I was 16. I am now 32 and things have been up and down for years but they have been overall significantly worse the last year
I’ve been reading about endo and trying to get doctors to listen to me for about 10 years with no luck. I have tried a lot of things, medical and naturopathic. Basically, at this point I just want a laparascopy but I cannot find a doctor who will do this and I do not understand why. I’ve been to the ER twice in 2021… read more

Lupron can cause many intense side effects, much more than a laparoscopy! If you don’t mind traveling to the Detroit area, Womens Excellence in Endometriosis is a great practice with several locations in metro Detroit. They will take your concerns seriously. I had to go through several others before finding a helpful care team. Best of luck.

That is so frustrating - sorry you are having difficulty trying to get (the gold standard) care. On my fertility app, everyone in the US is getting laps constantly, so I was surprised to read this as it seems they give them without second thought if you want a baby - that is so unfair. I would keep hunting for an endometriosis specialist - your quality of life is important and I hope you can find a Dr who understands that. Unfortunately I’m not familiar with any in your area.
