I’ve been told a lot of things on this question above. Just curious to how many of you have had children and then were diagnosed with endometriosis
yes. I have a six year old. I was diagonised last year after 3 years of being unable to concieve.
I was there with my ex. It made my life even more difficult. He just didn’t understand, just didn’t seem to care as if his comfort on the daily was more important than even trying to understand what it’s like. I’ve since find a fricken godsend of a man. I don’t even know how he puts up with me but he’s so kind and caring. And my mother is a health nut who fully believes the effect of chronic illness so I’m lucky for sure.
So there’s hope. Either he will finally understand or you will find people to surround yourself with who love and respect you always and who consider your experience real. There is hope.
Thank you so much ladies for all your insightful answers. I appreciate it
I found out after my second child and i was able to have two more children and then two years after my son was born that I had a hysterectomy. After each child I would start to have issues and it would be worse .
Yes my children are now 13 & 11 and I didn’t find out until last fall. Of course I’m not sure how long I’ve had this. My pain really started 5 years ago. So who knows.
