Well let's hope the little spermies did stick!
I didn't thin I had endo either since I also have regular periods, (never missed one!) and have had a million ultrasounds too. It grows outside the uterus and mostly isnt seen without laproscopic surgery which is why they had no idea it had gotten this bad. But Apparently the doctor says it would have grown without the abdominal surgery but it made it as bad as it is REAL quick.
It's stage 3 which is not good and was all over everything (found all this out last week)
And he says I need to get pregnant fast and then not ovulate ever again. (ovulation causes menstrual backflow which causes demo to grow outside of the uterus) sadly, to wait and try to do it on our own would cause the endo to grow back and start f'ing with my eggs and lining again so we are being very aggressive.
He has put me on metformin and is giving us 1 month to do this on our own and then if there's no luck in december he is going to put me on injectable fertility drugs and do IUI to force to the issue. Without success, we would move on to IVF.
So he is determined to make this happen for me... I hope it all works and all this can be put behind us. It's a big strain on a relationship isn't it?
Luckily, hubbie has been really supportive but it takes a toll as I'm sure you both know.
So anyhow, that's it for me. This whole this is exhausting but exciting...
Btw, the metformin is a devil drug, it has made me SO sick!
But at least I KNOW I'm ovulating now. I tell ya... It's enough to drive a gal mad!!
Happy thanksgiving to you too kat! 32 people?? YIKES! good luck doll!
Hope you are well too Kate, let's all stay up to date with one another if we can!
Xoxoxo
