Being 20 weeks and 3 days pregnant
I am concerned about the risks during the birthing process
Sadly, it's a fact that women die while giving birth all the time and women of color like myself die at even higher rates.
Taking this into consideration while having stage IV Endo... I am concerned about risks while giving birth and if there is a percentage/statistic that maybe known of how often do women with Endo die during child birth or within the year of giving birth? As well as having… read more

Hey guys anyone ever experience an Ectopic Pregnancy ?

I've been so down and out. I've tried to keep positive about things, but it seems I find it harder and harder every day. My number 1 dream has always been to have a family. I'm engaged and my fiancé has a daughter from a previous relationship. When I see them together it makes my heart melt and she's always asking when she's going to have a baby sister. I can't help but think I may never be able to conceive.. there's some days I can't even look at baby pictures because I get so jealous and… read more

I know that endo can cause infertility and or problems trying to conceive, my question is to all you women who have had a child can endo cause issue for the baby when there in you? I have a chocolate cyst on my right ovary and well I’ve never been under the knife. I was just curious like if for some miracle I get pregnant while having the cyst can the baby be harmed by it?

Does anyone know if you tell your doctor after surgery that the only place you have to go is your car if they will let you stay in the hospital?

Does anyone experience bleeding after climax? This is not just related to penetration, and after I have thick clots for about 12 hours. This happens every time, even if it's a few times a week. Should I see my specialist or is this a 'normal' endo symptom?
Appointments are very expensive so would love any advice if this has happened to someone else.

I’ve always been exhausted no matter how much sleep I got... my entire life Ive had issues with fatigue, but ever since I starts Lupron I have been SOOO exhausted that i can barely keep my eyes open some days... does anyone experience this? And is there anything I can do about it? I take multivitamins everyday, and I dont drink caffeine so I dont know what to do

I have been on hormones to stop periods and attempt to get rid of most of the pain from Endometriosis and PCOS. Although it has helped the pain substantially I have never felt more depressed in my life. When I say I cry everyday, I mean everyday. I go from a major high to an all time low, then get angry! 😢It's really starting to affect my relationship. Am thinking about coming off them and back on pain management but am terrified that I will then loose my job, the one thing that makes me get up… read more

Hi all :)
I’m new to this page but my wife & I are ready to have a baby after 10 years. I have always had severe endo pain which can cause me to get lightheaded, pass out for a few min and vomit. Because of this I went on Depo Provera as it was affecting my daily life. I just got off of the shot after 6 years (nervous for the pain to creep back in but I want a baby so bad I’m willing to do anything) and my questions are:

Have any of you taken Depo Provera and gotten pregnant after? If so, how… read more
