I became pregnant naturally with all my children. I am 10 weeks after 3-4 laps. No IVF or fertility drugs...that puzzles the doctors...me too.

It depends on the extent for the damage by the Endometriosis, where the Endometriosis is located.

The best thing to do is to have a skilled GYN perform a lap and start there.
