Can someone please help?
I went to my family doctor because I was having severe cramping and bleeding during my monthly. I am usually use to the bad cramps and everything but this time was a little different.
He took blood, X-rays, ultrasound and all of that good stuff...
Then he told me that I have endometriosis!
He explained it to me briefly, and told me that I need to go to a regular OBGYN and let them have a look at me.
I have known since I was 14 that I have ovarian cists.
He also told me that endometriosis can cause you not to be able to have children? Is this true...
I have been trying to become pregnant with my husband for 3 years.

tagged name wrong...but the above message is for you! And any woman that follows after you!
Unfortunately it is true that endometriosis causes fertility issues...I was never able to conceive because of mine...but I also got into the hands of dr's who did not understand the disease...that being an OBYGYN...they are NOT the doctors to see for endometriosis...Please see an endometriosis specialist! Many women after have excision surgery by a specialist conceive within a few months...I would have had my baby if only I had gotten into the hands of a specialist...Oby/gyn's have 15 minutes of training on endo and the training is no longer accurate...so please see a specialist! If you need help locating one share the the city/state or providence/country and we will try to help you find the closest one to you!
