> Hello...new here and just had my 2nd lap on Tuesday for endo. My doc
> informed me that my right ovary had adhesions and a rather large endo
> cyst on it. He told me that after removing the cyst and adhesions he
> wrapped my ovary in Gortex which keeps it from forming the adhesions
> again. I have never heard of this before and no one at my endo boards
> seems to have heard of it. I saw a pic of my ovary wrapped in the
> Gortex and am curious as to if anyone here has had this done or knows of
> anyone who's had it done. I'm just not sure what to expect from it. Are
> there any side effects? Could there be problems later? Or is it
> basically harmless? I don't go back to see my doc until Dec. 7th and am
> too curious to wait so if anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.
