2.) "Re: Pain after hysterectomy"...responded to by J. Glenn Bradley, MD: "IMHO, adhesions are the problem until proven otherwise. If another laparoscopy confirms this, and the right ovary is involved, would consider removal to minimize another lap."

3.) "Re: ADHESIONS"...responded to by J. Glenn Bradley, MD: "Adhesions are scar tissues and do not disappear after they have formed. If causing symptoms ( unlikely constipation ) they can only be removed surgically."

4.) "Re: Question for the Doctors Re Adhesions"...responded to by Don Shuwarger, MD: "You are correct that pelvic adhesions can only be diagnosed with 100% certainty by direct observation ( laparoscopy / laparotomy ). There may be something that makes the GI MD suspicious of this condition."

5.) "Re: Partial Ovary"...responded to by William D. McIntosh, MD: "The adhesions are the most likely culprit from what you have told us, and it is likely that removing that ovarian remnant would help, though there is no guarantee, as the adhesions could reform."

6.) "Re: Dr. McIntosh, followup question, please"...responded to by William D.McIntosh, MD: "Most of the organs in the abdomen and pelvis need to be able to move, either in order to do their job, as in the case of the bowel, or in order to accommodate periodic changes in size, as in the case of the ovary. Adhesions bind things in place. In the case of the ovary, adhesions can attach the ovary to various structures such as the pelvic side wall, the uterus, the bowel, the cul-de-sac, and so on. Then, as the ovary changes size with your hormonal cycle, it is unable to move freely, resulting in pulling and pressure that is potentially painful. So, to answer your question, it is neither the ovary nor the adhesions that cause the problem, but rather the ovary having adhesions that creates the pain."
