Question, I ve done Lupron, twice. and Im only 26. so I know your pain... I haven't tried to have a child yet, although I have gone through 2 false pregnancies... But has your Dr. Explained to you that once you get a period, and your estrogen is work like it used to that there is a big chance that the Endo can come back???? That is what the Endo feeds off of so any miniscuel pieces can grow and come back. A year after My first surgery when we found the endo, for some reason my body decided to have a period for 2 months. It was horrendous my parents had to rush me to the ER cause I was not just bleeding I was Hemrroging (SP) terribley each day. 4 1/2 months later I had to go through another laporoscapy becuase of all the intense pain and everything was worse then the frist time.

I wish you all the luck in concieving and that it is a very quick conception for you and your husband, mainly you. And that everything goes well for you. I know my Dr. Told me that when I do decide to have a child, it is going to have to be very well planned and very quicky because the longer i have a cycle the worse I become...
