What would you do??? Severe endo & ttc

Hi- so about my journey so far- I struggled to conceive 4 yrs ago and that was wen I was diagnosed with stage 3 endo. I eventually conceived in 2016 which was a total of 2 1/2yrs trying, I had excision surgery in March this year - my endo is severe now. We are ttc again , it’s been 23 months in total but only 7 since I’ve had the surgery... I can feel my endo coming back as I get pain but the pain is bearable for now.

The consultant said my best chance to conceive would be the first year after surgery.

I guess my question is how long should I keep trying for? The last time my pain was unbearable and it turned out I had a 10cm cyst on my right ovary but miraculously conceived .

In my mind I was thinkin at least til March next year which will be the year mark or should I carry on til I can’t bear the pain? I really don’t want more surgery ....
