How soon?

I am having laparoscopy on Dec.30 and we are having our post-op consult a few weeks later. If the endo is mild, like I am assuming it is, we would like to pursue IUI asap. For those of you that have had lap, how long did you wait to do a treatment after surgery?

Some RE’s wait one cycle some start at the next cycle. The RE’s at my clinic are split so I got advice from both sides, I found it funny. I ended up waiting one cycle because I could not get into my RE in time. I believe the goal for them all is to have you pregnant in the first 6 months post Lap because that is the most fertile time.

I got AF about 2 weeks after my lap. My RE was willing to go ahead with IUI the next cycle. We decided to try that cycle naturally and ended up with a BFP on our own. My endo was mild. Good luck with the lap. It's not so bad. Just be sure to take it easy following the surgery. I took a week off from work.

My lap turned into major surgery, so my Dr wanted me to wait 3 cycles to heal. I didn't want to wait that long, so we compromised and waited 2. Good luck!

I had Stage 3 endo and had my lap/hysteroscopy in April of 07. My RE wanted me on Lupron shots for three cycles. I completed those in June 07 but AF didn't return till Labor day weekend. Then I started IUI's. I really didn't mind the four month wait because it gave my mind, body and emotions time to regroup and start again with fertility treatments. Good luck to you.

I am having lap surgery on Jan 9th. Really nervous and scared. I also heard that the first 6 months are the best to try to get pg after lap, but I guess each case is different. My RE says I have pretty severe endo, mine is on my ovaries already. LEt me know how your lap went. I am next
