Lupron can cause many intense side effects, much more than a laparoscopy!

That is so frustrating - sorry you are having difficulty trying to get (the gold standard) care. On my fertility app, everyone in the US is getting laps constantly, so I was surprised to read this as it seems they give them without second thought if you want a baby - that is so unfair. I would keep hunting for an endometriosis specialist - your quality of life is important and I hope you can find a Dr who understands that. Unfortunately I’m not familiar with any in your area.
