How long did it take to get pregnant (older women)

Hi, i was diagnosed with Endometriosis about 18 months ago, after years and years of suffering. My Consultant was very compassionate at all, i had a op to remove some of the endo 15 months ago, i also had the Mirena coil fitted but this dislodged and had to be removed.

My consultant then said "oh well just have an Hysterectomy then, no other option"

I do not want this, i feel that it is so final and other treatments have not even been tgried and we have also decided we want to try for another baby, but i am aged 41.

Has anyone else of this age with Endo concieved a baby, and how long did it take?
