Hi Lauren, Doctors give their opinion to the best of their knowledge. If you do some research on endo you will find that some women have difficulty getting pregnant and others have no problems. One of the main factors in having endo is the removal of it. If properly done women can go for many years without any symptoms. A lot of factors to be considered are the stage of the disease and the type of doctor you go to. Also what your insurance will allow. Some people go to infertility doctors, some go to endo specialist to have the disease removed. Others try medications and modified diets. I think for him to say that you should have kids now is a bold statement to make. It puts a lot of pressure on you and you partner. If I were you, I would seek other professional opinions. Have them review the findings of your present doctor. Such as pathology reports etc. I had surgery every two years for about five years. Never had a problem getting pregnant. I have two boys. My husband has put up with me and my physical problems for almost twenty five years. First educate yourself. There is alot of information on this forum and links on the web. Knowledge is like power. It gives you a huge advantage when visiting with a doctor. I would learn all you can before you make your partner agree to such a decision. You should both know the facts and what you should do according to your lives. Children are definately not like buying a car or something, they change your life forever and if you are not ready for that then you should consider all your options. Your children will grow up and be on their own, but your spouse is the one you will grow old with and be with forever. Anyway, that is the way it is suppose to be. Why does he not want to go to the doctors? Does he not trust what they are saying? Do he want more information first? Does he not want children right away? You don't have to answer these questions. I would be overwhelmed if I were him also. Who would say go for it? Is it people who are not married and have no children, or is it people who are mature and have experience in life and have good marriages. I would think you should have some time to think things through for a little while and do some searching. Hope this helps a little.
