3 months ago I had a laparoscopy/laparotomy for my ectopic pregnancy which resulted in the loss of my left fallopian. and approximately a month or so I had pain again. Since I've been abstinate ruled out ectopic. I got an ultrsound and saw a 5 cm hematoma they said. Well 3 days before my 2 week follow up I was sent to the ER and soon admitted in for surgery. There my physican found that I had a severe case with the ENDOMETRIOSIS and my right tube was blocked...when my mother beared the news the next day I was in tears b/c I am 19 yrs old but the doctor managed to successfully unblock my right tube. I've always been a healthy individual. I want children, but I want them in 10 years. Now they say I'm lucky to have 5 years. In 2-3 months I developed a highly severe case. It's astonishing to me. Now I want to know...what is the pro's to my situation? I already know the cons. Will I be able to conceive a healthy pregnancy if possible for me to be pregnant and so forth. Please n thanks

The pro's are that you did not have to have a hysterectomy as of yet, and that they were unable to unblock your tube. I only have one ovary myself, and I have endometriosis. You are young, yes, and I would not say, go out and just get pregnant to get pregnant. You sound like a very smart young lady and you know that reality is that you do not have the 10 years that you wanted to conceive. If you want a baby, you realize you will have to do so before then. I wish you all the luck there is. I guess you need to look within yourself, and decide if you truly do want children or not. If you do, then you will know what to do!

Treatment of endometriosis may involve either drugs or surgery, and sometimes both. Since endometrial tissue depends on estrogen to grow, physicians prescribe drugs that change the body's estrogen balance and halt endometrium growth. These drugs include high doses of birth control pills and drugs that halt ovulation and menstruation, including danazol and a class of drugs called gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues. If medications do not work, the endometrium tissue may be surgically removed using laparoscopy. Most commonly the diseased tissue is destroyed by means of lasers attached to the laparoscope. In severe cases, a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) may be necessary. For most women, the symptoms of endometriosis disappear following menopause.

The biggest pro is that all those motherless children who so badley need some love and a hug and kiss goodnight could find a home in you! I hope you do have your own child. I have three. But I'm also a foster mom to 4 more and I love them just as much as my own and couldn't think of life without them. Precious precious gifts. No matter how they get to me.

Get your IVF-invitro fertilization treatment in India .IVF treatment, IUI, ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India. There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges all types of medical treatment and surgery for foreigners in India. They are called the Forerunners Healthcare. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. I have also read that they arrange financing for American and Canadian patients, as some of the surgery including ivf treatment is not covered by insurance.
They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. The cost savings are incredible. As a doctor I personally believe that your treatment and surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world. The doctors are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star. I recently also read about a Chinese couple facilitated by forerunners healthcare were able to get their baby by IVF and a surrogate mother.
My cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the forerunners healthcare in India and is all praise for this company. She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full treatment for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.I strongly recommend this company to you as they can be of great help to you. Hope this helps.
