Your post caught my eye because my name is Tara too and I have endo also. I'm 30 and was told when I was around 25 that I probably shouldn't wait until I was in my 30's to have a family. There's some pressure for ya! I'm still not married and no kids. BUT - the last time I had my annual my doctor was telling me that medical advances in fertility are helping women who have endo have children more and more.

Just remember that having endometrosis doesn't guarantee you will never have kids. I know a lot of women with endo who have had children and medical advances are being made all the time to help those who are having trouble. If I were you I'd try not to worry about it (I know easier said than done) until it really is an issue and you've been trying to get pregnant for a while.
