Re: Afraid......From: sarah (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue Jan 30 15:15:47 2007
hi melissa, I am also young and look forward to having children some day. I have had endo for 7 years and I'm finally trying to help myself. I had the surgery when I was 19, they did not laser anything off they just looked inside and saw that I had endo. My doctor gave me the choice to have them laser the endo off but I choose not to. I have heard that when you have the surgery and get the laser that it lowers your chance of getting pregnant and won't always help. My advice would be to find out whether or not you have endo then try other options to help you. there are several methods like medicine from your ob or you can go to a nutritionalist or acupuncturist that specializes in endo. If you ever need someone to talk to or confide in I am here for you. At Tue, 30 Jan 2007, Melissa wrote: > >Hi, >I'm new to this site.
