                                            Question : I am 4 weeks post  total hysterectomy for endometriosis . Prior to surgery I was having  pelvic pain  due to endo. All of a sudden the pain returned 3 days ago.I see my Dr tomorrow but can it still be endometriosis or what else could it be. Is there anything that my Dr could do. I am post menopausal and unable to take HRT.
                            
                                    Brief Answer:
no
Detailed Answer:
Hi
After surgery the organs  in body recover slowly and get adjusted in abdomen. The wound also heal slowly. This pain you have is because of these reasons.
Endometriosis would not have returned so soon.
