I'll never get to be a mother in future since they can't unblock my fallopian tubes.

More Complications after fourth Surgery for endometriosis....So I'm from a one week admission in hospital and my Doctors state the case of what will happen if they try to unblock my fallopian tubes...It's also risky to stay wth them cause if I do get intimate the baby will grow in the blocked Fallopian tubes causing an ectopic pregnancy....And I can't afford private surgery for them..I want a kid, one day and just only one...Is it too much to ask for???

Hiya,

Sorry to hear that- it's a hard thing to have to deal with & get your head around. Did anyone mention IVF/ fertility treatment to you? From a support group talk on fertility that I went to, this is just the sort of thing IVF helps with.

Hey... My Drs have recommended it and that's what I'd have to learn more about as well as consider it..

Pls share contacts on that?

Hi. It’s a lot to take in especially in your early twenties. I’m a fair bit older but got diagnosed with endo out of the blue. Both my tubes are completely blocked, got stage 4 and various other issues. Against the odds we went ahead with ivf and our little miracle is due in a few weeks. Are you being seen at a bsge centre? You need a plan for controlling the endo through meds eg the pill to reduce it getting worse as much as possible until you’re ready. It can take a while to work out what best suits you. Have you a lap to confirm the diagnosis? I have also find diet helps, both with the pain and eating foods that soothe rather than agrivate the endo. Hope you’v g support whilst you’re going through this. Xx

Hey..I've been seen by Gynae in a public hospital , they told me that I could rather be booked for a 5th surgery to have them cut since they both blocked by nextyr cause it'd be risky to perform it now as I've just had the 4th one recently...Yes, I've had surgery to diagnose it and I'm in SA...IVF is the option although it's very expensive and I'm not financially stable..I'd love to have one or two kids through this procedure , it's so hard to adjust and my family is very distant....Im a confused and hurt individual ,it's alot to digest

Hey. I've been away from my cell for a long time. No I'm not pregnant , I've just been in and out of hospital because of this thing. Apparently things got worse and they had to put me on Zoladex for some time until things get better so pregnancy is the last thing especially now. I'll try google on the Medicine and gather as much info as I can about it.

Thanks for the help
