TTC with Endometriosis
Hello beautiful TTC community! I have been using the glow app for 6 months and have finally mustered up the courage to post. I am 25 (in 2.5 weeks but close enough) and happily married. I was diagnosed with stage 3 Endometriosis at 20 via laprascopic surgery in which they removed the Endometriosis. I completed 6 months of Lupron injections and had been taking LoLoestrin until March of this year. In December 2016 I had my second surgery where I unfortunately had to have my left fallopian tube removed and they were thankfully able to repair my left ovary. My husband and I were had to make the decision to either start TTC or go through the Lupron injections again. We knew we wanted to have children very soon so in March I stopped the LoLoestrin. We have been TTC for 6 months with no luck. I use Glow and other fertility tracking apps and have done a lot of research online. I am wondering if anyone has any tips based on my issues surrounding Endometriosis. This whole process has been extremely draining emotionally and there is a fear every single month when I get my period that the endometriosis is growing back and my chances of getting pregnant are getting worse. I don't know anyone else who has been through something similar, and it's hard when our friends and family ask when we are TTC and keep asking when we will get pregnant. We want nothing more than to be parents, and I don't know what else to do. Thank you for hearing my story and for any advice you may have!
