Can endormetreosis grow after hysterectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: If the ovaries were left in, then endometriosis will still be active and can continue to cause pain and inflammation. If the ovaries were removed then typically endometriosis would become inactive, though in severe cases one can still have issues.
