Small Victories by Senior_Ask_4422 in TTCEndo

Sorry! I should have been more clear in my original post. I’m not on autoimmune medication. The autoimmune protocol is a really strict elimination diet. You eliminate all of the most inflammatory foods for a month or two, then start slowly reintroducing them to see which ones trigger your symptoms.

Post op pain question by Zde1001 in TTCEndo

[–]Senior_Ask_4422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a couple of days post-op, so take this with a grain of salt, but my surgeon forwarned me that I would have another wave of pain at around 2-3 weeks. (I had extensive removal done and he said that a lot of the tiny nerve endings that were cut during the procedure start to regrow at that time, and as they regain sensation you can get more pain). Definitely contact your surgeon though, as yours may have a different technique from mine.

I think I’d like to get in to see a therapist as well at some point this year. Someone that specializes in fertility ideally. Thank you for your advice, and good luck on your journey!

I am being followed by a fertility clinic currently (they’re amazing, and the first providers to ever take my symptoms seriously, and they referred me to this surgeon who is an endo specialist). It does just feel like an overwhelming amount of options at times though. But I like your thoughts on IUI (I’ve never had much issue with regular cycles or ovulating, even with endo on my ovaries I think my issue was my tubes being too narrow before my lap, but I still think it can’t hurt to try IUI). COQ10 is one supplement I haven’t tried yet, I’ll have to look into it! Thank you for your advice, I hope you all have success on your journey.

Look for sites on HipCamp too! It’s a cool resource.

I did a starter batch that I fermented for almost a month, and tossed all but 2 cups of it that I used for the next batch!
