Hi! Just wanted to introduce myself

I have been stalking this forum since months but now I have finally become a part of it as I am in need of support. A little about myself
I am 27 and DH is 31. I have severe Endometriosis with endometriomas on both ovaries. My amh is 0.86 (low for my age) and my RE thinks my tubes may also be damaged with endometriosis  (they are open though).
I have received this diagnosis recently and totally devastated. We are starting ivf probably next month (waiting to get finances together) as my endo is growing everyday and it cannot be removed from my ovaries because it will affect my ovarian reserve which is as it is low.

So we had to literally rush into getting ivf done although we were not financially and emotionally ready because more I wait, more difficult it will be for me to conceive.

Anyone in same situation?

    Hello and welcome. I don't have endo, but I have fibroids that grow quickly. I've had 25 removed through surgeries, but they are still coming back. Hubs and I are also moving to IVF since my the fibroids are coming so fast. I hope you get the support you need. You are not alone!
