Infertility

Success w/ Endo Post Lap (BFP mentioned)

I was on a non-medicated cycle after being out of town at the start of it (so couldn't be monitoried), but when I made it to 15DPO without spotting, I decided to risk taking a test on Wednesday evening and got two lines! Went in for my beta yesterday and it was a 590 and my progesterone was 21, so, as hard as it is for me to believe, I guess I'm pregnant. Still in a lot of shock--I go in in two weeks for an ultrasound as my doctor said there's a slighly increased chance of ectopic pg in the two months following a lap, but I'm really not trying to think about that.

To let you know where I was in the process, I had a lap on June 2nd after a cyst was found at my pre-Clomid ultrasound and the doctor removed a significant amount of endometriosis (my tubes & ovaries were stuck to the sides of my abdomen to the extent that the doctor didn't think that an egg could actually get from my ovaries to the tubes). I tried Clomid on my first cycle post lap and ovulated but got a BFN. From what I have read, though, I know Clomid can be in your system for a few months after taking it so maybe I did have some help from whatever was still left! This was our 11th cycle TTC.

I wanted to thank you all so much for everything--I know I haven't been here all that long but I appreciate so much all the information and support I got. I wanted to share my story to give hope to others that have been recently diagnosed with endo! Thanks again!
