Hi Chanti

I have severe (stage 4) Endo plus lots of other issues. The only way it was discovered was with a Laparoscopy. Chat to your gynae. You will be surprised how eager they are to do it and its covered by Medical Aid.
Your symptoms don't sound good. But you are still young and knowledge is power.

Good luck.
Me: 41 (Endometriosis stage 4 & Fibroids)
DH: 36

TTC since Nov 2011

Laps: Aug 2011, July 2012, Jan 2013 & Feb 2017
Myomectomy: May 2018
Lots of timed cycles with clomid & progesterone = BFN
IUI 1: May 2013 = BFN
IUI 2: June 2013 = BFN
IVF 1: Aug 2013 (Clomid, Menopur 4ER & 3ET) = BFN
IVF 2: Feb 2014 (Clomid, Menopur 3ER & Nothing to transfer) = Cancelled Cycle
IVF 3: May 2014 (GonalF, Menopur 1ER & 1 very slow divider ET) = BFN
IVF 4: September 2014 = BFN

@Liza - No its been for the last 4 months I would say, it has also been followed by large blood clots up to CD9... This cycle I only had one day of blood clots at about CD4/5 and nothing since but still having the cramps which makes me think something isn't too kosher inside. Im glad I didn't get the crazy clots this month but it just makes me think something is stuck inside still then :(

Hi Ladies

Hope all is doing good

@ Anzel happy anniversary! This will be your month!!!

Not much news on my side. CD13 today we used our concieve plus on CD10 & 12. I had a lot of CM on CD10 and also on 12. FX that it is a good sign. Were trying to BD as much as possible and we have "spread" out our CP for every second day.
I want to try and keep 3 applicaters if this is not our month. So scared that i wont find it again.

Hi Ladies,

@Anzel - Happy Anniversary :heart:

@Chanti - go and have a look at www.livingandloving.co.za/article.aspx?i...ometriosis-explained
I have/had stage one endo, and you can actually only confirm endo with a laparoscopic surgery. My gynaecologist gave me the option, so I opted for the surgery. My Medical Aid also covered the operation. Let me know if you need more information. :heart:

@Anzel - FX for you hun! Keep those positive vibes going :cheer:

@TanyaS - I know the feeling, you just "know" its not your month and its hard to think otherwise.

Ladies have a look on the conceive plus SA website, they have a list of their stockists.
