Some women discover their condition of endometriosis when they have trouble becoming pregnant. If conception is your goal, making the choice among current fertility options- medications, IVF, or surgery is complex. Non-surgical treatments can be a lengthy process, taxing to maternal health, and often are not covered by insurance.
Finding the right medical partner to discuss pursuing pregnancy with endometriosis is very important. Your decision depends on many factors- the severity and prevalence of your disease, maternal age, general health, heredity, and previous treatments (if any). Investigating all of your options with this complex disease can be quite challenging.
