[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, this is 9:32. I just wanted to say that in my opinion, at least, endometriosis can make a huge difference. At least a few years ago when I was going through deciding what to do, most RE's said it didn't matter, especially if you did IVF, and most of my googling said that endometriosis was a huge factor in fertility although it was unclear why. For me, I had suspected I had this since high school, duw to horribly painful periods, later helped greatly only by birth control pills. Throughout my adult life (pre ttc) I mentioned this to my OBs and they all dismissed it. Had I realized it could impact fertility I would have pushed harder long ago. A PP is definitely correct that it won't be cured, but if you have endometriosis cleared out, it should stay away for a year or two, and ironically I was told that the best help to clear emdo is pregnancy. One thing I also tried before working on #2 (which seems to have worked, after 4 IVFs and 2 m/c...skipped the lap that go round) was a Pycnogenol supplement. Its an antioxidant and supposed to help clear the cobwebs so to speak. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/64791.php[/quote]
