My time may be up

I had an appointment at the fertility clinic yesterday for potential ivf. Bearing in mind I have already had 5 treatments with a previous partner all which ended on miscarriage. A previous mri scan for another medical condition had shown up my severe endo and also that I had a very swollen fluid filled tube. So yesterday's visit was basically taking all details of myself and my partner and also a ultra sound scan. The scan did not go very well. They could not make head nor tail of what any of my internal sexual organs were. All i got was ,we think this is an ovary, this might be a fallopian tube but we are not sure, there is fluid here but not sure what it is or where it is, if it's inside an ovary or on an ovary.so basically my endo is that bad my insides are turning into distorted mush. Also was told that they may not even get access to my ovaries for egg retrieval due to the endo. Im st the stage of just giving up on becoming a mother as the odds are against me and thats a hard pill to swallow. Anyone here in the same position?

Hello, I’m not in your position, but couldn’t just read and not reply. I’m so sorry for what you’ve had to go through, it’s a cruel disease for sure xxx

All the love 💗

Don't give up; take charge, change your eating habits (try plant base eating), stay active. If I see correctly, you're only 39, you can do this.
