A member asked:
If my gyn suspects endometriosis should i be persistent in getting the laprascopic surgery for a definitive diagnosis?

A lot depends: on severity of your symptoms. response to empiric treatment, and your general medical condition. And sometimes diagnosis cannot be confirmed even at laparoscopy. Follow your gyn's advice.
