    Re: Endometriosis

    Ofcourse they put a stitch after lap which usually dissolve after 10days.But Iam not very lucky.So they took my stitches after 15 days....
    Iam not very sure about the pregnancy rate after this.People say they get pregnant after this test......
    If the doctor prescribes for lap,its better to go for one.They say if we have tissues inside then the chances of getting pregnant naturally is very less.So they generally ask to have this test and get checked.If we have some tissues inside they also remove it in the same operation.They did it for me......
    Hope this helps.....

    Re: Anyone with Endometriosis ? Needs support !

    Hey there!

    I was diagnosed with endometriosis after my marriage and underwent laproscopic treatment for the same. I took the lupride depot injection for three months after the laproscopy. From the fourth month, my periods became regular. I was in very good hands, I must admit.
    Now, we are trying to start a family and hopefully, we will soon have a baby.
    So, don't worry and if you are confident you are in good hands, go ahead with the treatment.

    Re: Anyone with Endometriosis ? Needs support !

    Hi
    I was diagnosed 30 years ago with endo and had one small sugery for an endometrioma (pocket of blood in abdomen due to the bleeding that occurs in endo during period time) on the left ovary when I was about 28. I was good for several years then when I was 35 I developed a huge 20cm endometrioma and had a huge surgery to remove it. Back then they gave Danocrine which is not used afaik. I was sick for years. I had a prognosis also of complete hysterectomy in 2 years. I started thinking I had to take my care in my own hands or the docs were going to ruin me.

    I saw a newspaper article on a chiropractor doing diet work and what he was talking about sounded like me even though he was not treating endo per se. I went to him and he gave me diet and herbal therapy (not expensive) for two years. At the end of that time, I had regained most of my health. Over the years I have continued to improve and I managed to get through menopause with little problem and no more surgeries. His name is Dr. Michael Leibowitz and he is now in Grand Junction, CO.

    Also, I would recommend that you get information/join the Endometriosis Association. They have a lot of information of help.

    Indians take a lot of care about so many health issues and then they still use DDT which is one of the causes of endometriosis. Please try to get it banned from India to protect your daughters from pain and infertility. In addition, another trigger is burning medical waste. Strange that working at a hospital can make you sick.

    My suggestion: Try the natural therapies before you let them cut you up if you can safely do that. Endo sufferers since its an immune disease recover slower from surgery.

    Mild endometriosis

    I have married for past 3year.We are trying for baby from last 3years only.But not geeting pregnant.We have concerned the gyanec here,and he did my laproscopy surgery too.During my surgery he cleared my mild endomerotis,But unluckly one endometriosis is left on delicate part ie on the ureter line,so the doctor told me that he will put me on menopause condition for three months and then i will go the pregnancy?Both we r confused what decision i will take.Decision 1)Can i take clomid drug for conception,which will have disadvantage too,that my endometriosis will grow more and ureter line become thin?
    Decision2)Can i go for three month gaps?So that my endometriosis will not grow and after that i will go for pregnancy?Please help me which decision is suitable for me?We did pitradosh puja also?[​IMG][​IMG] My hubby is very much close to his sister children..So feel jealous why should i am not able to give child to my hubby?
