TTC with endometriosis

[Loucapps]

I have been trying for number 3 for 8 months and it’s killing me, I am starting to think it will never happen. When do I go to Dr, do I leave it a year?

It depends how old you are. If you’re under 35 you need to try for a full year, if you’re over 35 you can be referred on after 6 months. Good luck.

I am only 29, I only have a few more months so I will stick it out xx

Are you already under a gynae for your endometriosis? If so then it might be worth trying to bring your next appointment forward and discussing it with them. They may need to do a laparoscopy if your endo has spread since your last child xx

Also remember, even without fertility issues 80% will become pregnant within a year and 90-95% within two years. Going to a gp won't make you get pregnant. The best indicator of future success is past success.

My best friend has quite serious stage 3 endometriosis and was worried she wouldn’t fall pregnant. She was pregnant within a year x
