A member asked:

Is a second laparoscopy beneficial to restore fertility again in a patient that conceived following the 1st laparoscopy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: If the cause of infertility was corrected the first time, repeating the proceedure should not be needed depending on what the problem was in the first place.
