How long is the typical treatment + recovery timeline?

Laparoscopic excision surgery is usually performed as a day procedure or with a 1–2 day hospital stay, followed by 2–4 weeks of recovery before resuming normal activities. Post-operative hormonal therapy (GnRH-a or dienogest) may last 3–6 months to suppress regrowth. For patients pursuing IVF, the total timeline from initial consultation to embryo transfer typically spans 4–6 weeks per cycle, with recovery from egg retrieval taking about 1–2 weeks.
