Shanna,
I would keep trying and try to stay positive. Even people without endo
can take awhile to get pregnant, and there is no guarantee that IVF will
work. I myself wasn't diagnosed with endo until I was 34 and had just
started trying to get pregnant. After 2 1/2 years and 2 laps later, I
still haven't gotten pregnant. I don't want to do IVF though, so I will
probably just deal with being child free. You are still young, so I
would just stay as healthy and positive as possible, and keep trying!
Best of luck to you!
Linda
