Title:

Endometriosis after partial hysterectomy

Message:

I had a partial hysterectomy (all but my left ovary) in Feb of this year due to severe endometriosis. I expected my pain to go away but its still there- just not as severe. My dr left the ovary in so I wouldn't go into menopause (I am only 26.). I am wondering if it would be better to just take out the ovary and see if there is any remaining endo that was missed? Anyone have an answer or helpful info. Right now I would just take a sympathetic ear.

I noticed Dr, Borrie is on an extended leave. If you want to post this under the chronic pain thread or the women's issues thread it would be good. I had endometrosis for years & a hysterectomty. Please feel free to email me at
