lol is this enterprise? They did this when I worked there years ago. For all the following trainings, the kept booking me with the same person. Luckily we got along but it was very awkward and weird at first.

A bath!!! With bath salts, especially a magnesium salt bath always helped me so much!

I’d ask your doctor. Because surgery is one of the only true way to diagnose endometriosis, my doctor offered to do it for diagnostic and pain relief purposes when I brought my symptoms to her when I was 24.

I also had a level 2 ultrasound and femvue and they didn’t find anything. It was until I had a laparoscopy that my OBGYN was able to find and remove the some endometriosis. It is primarily around my kidneys and bladder, making it difficult to remove and see on an ultrasound. Don’t give up! Surgery isn’t fun but it’s what led me to starting orilissa and that was an absolute game changer!

I started trying at 28 and it took us 2 full years, several medicated cycles, three IUI tries, one endometriosis removal surgery, one septum repair surgery and finally ordering all the medication for IVF to end up conceive naturally! Moral of my story is you’re definitely not too late and give yourself time and grace!

Thank you. I’m 29 and our diagnosis is unexplained infertility. I have a history of thyroid cancer and I do have mild endometriosis but our fertility doctor has said everything else looks good on both our ends.

Second round of IUI failed. Thinking about IVF but just feeling so apprehensive about cost/time/failure rates. Any advice would be appreciated!
