A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

So I found out recently that my right ovary is stuck to my bowel, I have a peritoneal inclusion cyst and endo on my uterosacral ligament.

I don’t have any exercising tips but an electric heat pack always helps me. Is surgery an option to help relieve some pain?

Thank you!! I hope your recovery is going well! I had a total hysterectomy 2 years ago, both fallopian tubes and one ovary removed, I’m really hoping to keep my remaining one even if it is stuck to my bowel 😅 If the cyst gets too big surgery may be an option but I’m seeing a chronic pelvic pain specialist who is supposed to be well versed in endo in September so I’m hoping he has some ideas.
