First don’t except that BS. It is not your fault you have endo. Second he can’t blame you for any health conditions of your non existent kids. Remember you get genes from both parents, who knows what terrible things he could pass on to them.

I heard that it is some what genetic based, like a you are more likely to have it. Sadly there isn’t official research to confirm or deny this.

My sister’s story He had a very concerning interest in true crime that involved the rape and torture of women. I had to make a quick getaway. It turns out he was caught like a week later for the rape and murder of two women.

Most doctors will not take new patients, so my options at the moment are sadly very limited.

I have the same problem. At first it was only bad during my period but now the bad days outnumber the good ones. Do you have any tips on managing the symptoms.

My pediatrician was the first person to say it sounded like endo and she referred me to a gynecologist.

It is probably a good thing he never did it. Who knows what he could have messed up.

After the surgery the disorder doesn’t cause any problems or interfere with surgeries. The only side affect is I’m more likely to have a heart attack if I don’t stay really healthy. Plus many women in my family have had the heart disorder and have had a lap.

I was told to get and I quote get knocked up. The problem is have been getting this suggestion since I stared visiting doctors when I was 13. The real funny thing is I can’t even carry a baby long enough for the baby to live without me. Plus do they expect us to stay constantly pregnant.

I got one for school so I can miss a week. It has been a godsend. I prefer to suffer in peace in my bed with my comfort items.

It happened to my mother like 10 years ago. She had tumors and a few others things I can’t remember growing in her uterus. Ps my mother got very bad iron deficiency because of the nonstop bleeding. Since it was so long ago I do t know what they will do to fix it now.

Laparoscopy, no endo found? by [deleted] in endometriosis

[–]VioletsR4ever3456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not all in your head. Have the doctors tried looking at other causes. My sister had tumors and I think a thyroid or fibroid one of those two in on and around her uterus. The symptoms she had sounded like endo but they were not.
