Edometriosis 1ovary1falopian Tube Can I Conceive
Posted: 11-21-03 12:09pm

I am a 30 year woman. I have been diagnosed with edometriosis. I have had two surgery. The last one two years ago and had to have my right ovary and falopian tube removed do to extensive damage. I have been trying to get pregnant for about 9 mos and so far no success, my doctor seems to think that I still have a pretty good chance of having a baby however I am not so sure. If there is anyone out there who has been through this please send feed back. I greatly appreciate it.

Be blessed

I am not currently trying to get pregnant, but have the same disease. I have done extended research on it and this is what I have found. Yes, you still can get pregnant. It is a lot harder to get pregnant with the disease and even if you do conceive complications are highly possible. I hope you do not have either of the above problems, but be prepared. Have you had any recent laproscopy to see much of the extra tissue has grown back? You may have to get it removed again to be able to conceive.

I have this disease also.

7 years ago, my (now ex) husband and I tried to conceive together. I have a son, he's 18, and at 18 when I had him, I did not know I had this disease then. When we were trying, we soon realized something was wrong. I went to a fertility specialist, and I shared with him my painful period stories and strange bleeding. He then ordered a laparoscopy. Through that test, it was conclusive I had it. My left ovary was damaged and one of my tubes was completely blocked.

They removed the excess tissue with a laser and he told us to get started right after my recovery process to try and get pregnant.

To no avail.

We were then asked if we wanted to procede with infertility treatment; we opted not to.

It is very difficult to get pregnant with endometreosis. But it is possible.

Make sure, if you're really wanting to get pregnant, see a very knowledgeable specialists on this disease.

Good luck to you!

Hello I am only 25 and was diagnosed with this disease when I was 21. I was told that the pain was all in my head and then I went to a new doctor and I went in for sugery. I had my left ovary and tube removed, also I went thru induced menopause for 7 months, I lost half my hair, shrunk a inch, started sagging where I shouldn't and lost a cup size. Now I am married and been trying for 1 year to get pregnant and nothing yet. I thought I was alone Crying
or Very sad but am very happy to find someone to talk to about this :p . My doctor now tells me I will get pregnant but my body has to get back in the groove of my age and I had to get all my hormones back. Wink maybe we can help each other.
Good luck with you efforts

We tried for 3 1/2 years- boom! Our first child.

We tried for 6 years after that. Boom! Our second child.

Endometriosis, one fallopian tube left, after two c-sections, endometriosis removed three times.

Three doctors told me that I could not conceive at all. So much for their degrees.

Dr. Jill flood in virginia beach virginia can help alost anyone with fertility.

She the best, affordable, and honest. She doesn't mess around with your heart when it comes to conception.

Try not to let those doctors open you up too much. It makes the endometiosis grow faster and more predominant than before.

I know-i am now battling the ovulation pain. And to think that I used to worry when I was- or if I was ovualting. I know when I do, which is kinda nice not having to buy those kits that tell you when. Too bad hubby is in iraq right now.
