good morning all.
i have been going back and forth from my doctors for months now and they have come up with they are pretty positive that i have endo. they said i have a higher risk of getting it because my mum has it quiet bad. i have had pains for months and cant handle it anymore. i have alot had 2 miscarriages, could it all be related? all i want is to still be able to have a healthy baby, is this still going to be able to happen.
thanks for any help its greatly appreciated.

" Yeah, the only way to know for sure is thru at Laparoscopy. Of course you could still have a healthy baby!! But they need to diagnose it, and the stage it is and try to remove it. "

" I'm so sorry for your miscarriages! It would be so hard to get your hopes up and then go through a loss! Your endo DEFINITELY could be why you are having miscarriages. From what I have seen most women with endo have low progesterone. We all have too much estrogen. So those hormone imbalances could definitely cause miscarriages!

Don't ever give up hope! I have a friend whose mom had 7 children and she had endo badly. Next time you get pregnant get in to the doctor quickly and have them check your progesterone levels. By the way I have a good friend who has 3 children. She miscarried I think 5 times. One was twins. But now she has her cute little family. She had to do progesterone shots or suppositories daily. But that made all of the difference for a few other friends too!

I am big on prayer and on visualization. Visualize what you want and pray for it. I hope you find peace. I know how hard it is at times! "
