How Long Did It Take You To Find The Right Doctor?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’ve been dealing with my problems since i was 4 and my ovarian cysts since i was 12.
I’ve seen countless doctors who refuse to diagnose me or to keep me on birth control (and change it when it doesn’t work).
Ive had one doctor tell me they refuse to do surgery and that im faking my symptoms.
How long did it take for you guys to find the right doctor to listen to you??

Myself and my husband had been trying to get pregnant for 18 months before I was referred to Native Iyabasira fertility solution. We had no definite diagnosis of what was wrong and had become very frustrated. In November 2015 I was given a thorough reproductive health work up, I found out I had low progesterone, thyroid issues and a stomach issue which was affecting my ability to get pregant. This was a very thorough process involving dietary, hormonal and physical investigations and started the recommended treatments in Feb 16 2016. I was pregnant by april 16. I had a baby boy in march 2017. I was carefully monitored and mother Iyabasira was always available for me. I can recommend native iyabasira more highly so much so we are hoping to start trying for a second baby under her guidance.

Drs not listening sux.....one of the most frustrating experiences for anyone to go through. I changed drs at same clinic...was seeing female who bulk bill's and just ignored me telling me to discuss it with gynae...was having below belly button pains etc...new dr doesnt bulk bill but worth the costs.....so much more thorough and helpful.
