endometriosis can and does spread to the
pelvis.
the endo can grow on the interior muscle,
your bowels and bladder and also your
cervix (if you kept it), your ovaries and
even sometimes into the top of the
vagina.
removal of the uterus does not guarantee
removal of all endo metrial tissue. This
tissue reacts to hormones released from
your ovaries.
It is preferable to keep your ovaries as
this can help reduce the need for hrt and
reduce the risk of things like
osteoporsis, however, keeping the ovaries
does mean that you are still at risk of
continued problems if your hyst was due to
endo.
Your best thing is to go back and see your
doctor and discuss possible treatments
with them.
