Hi

Has anyone ever had or known anyone who has had ovarian drilling done?

I have been to the hospital and they spoke to me about it, just wondered if anyone can talk to me about it please

Thanks

I had this procedure done about 13 years ago. It was a success and I fell pregnant 2 months later.

Happy to answer any questions.

A friend of mine had this last year and the first month after it, she fell pregnant after many months of trying. Good luck!

What would you like to know?.

I have had this type of surgery done (its proper name is ovarian diathermy) and in my case it was successful in that I became pregnant a couple of months later.

(It is not a cure for polycystic ovaries however, and the cystic follicles associated with this do return eventually).
