Post-operative Ovarian Adhesion Study in Women With Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological condition which typically present with pelvic pain and fertility problems. It is caused by tissues which are similar to the lining of the womb growing inside the women's pelvis. Severe endometriosis is most effectively treated using keyhole surgery. During the operation, endometriosis tissue is removed. However, following successful removal of endometriosis, women may still experience pain because the ovaries sometimes become stuck to the bottom of the pelvis due to post-operative scarring. We want to see if coating one of the ovaries in an anti-scar tissue gel stops the post-operative scarring.
