Conception after Laparoscopy success?

Hi ladies.
I’m looking for some hope and encouragement about endometriosis mums who have conceived after laparoscopy.

I’m about to have my third laparoscopy. The first 2 were to alleiviate symptoms and this one is to hopefully increase fertility.
I’m ovulating each month as confirmed by bloods and home kits. My DH has had his swimmers tested and all is good there.
I’m 34 and been TTC for 2 years how. I have an 11 year old son from previous marriage and so does my DH.
My consultant has been brutal and said that I might get lucky and conceive after the laparoscopy but not to get my hopes up as is probably unlikely. I still want to explore all options and give it a try.
Has anyone fallen pregnant after a lap after failing to conceive? Or did it not work for you?
Any feedback or stories welcome!

Following with interest. Waiting for my lap date to come through. Ttc and history of endo. Hope you get a bfp soon 😊

Thanks squirrel! I will post if I have a BFP anytime soon. Told to wait a long to ttc due to the perforation in my uterus so all over it next month 😂 x

I have severe endo - had my first lap in 2012 and conceived within 2.5 months.

This time round we've been trying for ages. Had another lap last October and nothing, so had pretty much lost all hope. However I got a bfp this week on my 25th cycle ttc! So don't lose hope!

Good luck in your recovery Thanks

Congratulation hopingforthebesttc. How exciting for you!

Still no BFP here -my lap was at the beginning of August. My DH was away over my top fertile days last month tho and the one before I ovulated way too early for some reason. I hold out hope for this one! Will let you all know if/when we have success!

Hi all-just wanted to direct you to a chat I started in the pregnancy talk area about success after a laparoscopy. Only posted it this morning and already seeing a lot of positive stories to keep us ttc-ers hopeful! Take a look! It has cheered me up!
