How do you know when to go see an RE? My husband and I have been trying for over a year and have only suffered one loss but with my severe endo, I think I might need extra precautions. Any thoughts?
I would bring it up with you OB like the PP said. My OB referred me but I have had 3 losses, so I'm now in the high risk category. I have a consult with the specialist/RE in late december.

If you have tried for over a year then I would definitely head to the RE and quick! RE's dont mess around. Ive had two over the last 6 years and they really are far superior than an OB when it comes to getting you pregnant. OB's just deal with you after you're Knocked up. They don't have the back ground or skill in getting you pregant and keeping you there.
