I'm 19 weeks along in my pregnancy and just got my TIFFA scan done last week. They said everything looks normal with the baby's movements and measurements, but they mentioned a thick abdomen and poor window. I'm really worried about what this means for my baby. Should I be concerned? Is there something specific I should be looking out for?

my doctor said I have stage two endometriosis after my first hysterectomy and now they're recommending completion surgery but I'm not getting clear reports can someone explain what this means and what to expect

Stage 2 endometriosis after hysterectomy means residual disease in other pelvic areas; completion surgery removes remaining ovaries or lesions to control symptoms.
