A member asked:

I had my ablation done monday 2/12/18 along with d&c and lap to remove endometriosis . will my sex life be normal. i read about numb vag. why does it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Endometrial ablation and laparoscopy do not cause numbness in the vagina nor do they affect intercourse after the body is completely healed from the procedures. It would be a good idea to discuss these kind of questions with your surgeon at your post op appointment since they know your full history
