I was was active on these boards back in 2013-2015 when we went throu 3 failed IUIs and 3 Failed IVFs. My diagnosis was shitty eggs.
We we decided to carry on with life since I was in my late 30s at that point.
Fast forward to 4 weeks ago. Went to OB because of bleeding. She asks me when I was at re did they ever mention endometriosis? Um no. What the what?
Had a lap on Wednesday. Stage 4 endo, endometrioma from each overly removed, both tubes removed and polyps removed.
Now it’s kinda rekindled my hope, even through I’m 42 now. What if? So dangerous, I know. Anyway headed back to the re to go for IVF 4. I have nothing to lose at this point.
Welp, here I am!
Sending much love to you all xoxo angela

Wow, hopefully getting the endo taken care of makes all the difference for you, but how maddening that your RE didn't catch it back in the day? Welcome back.

Wow! Welcome back. That is heartbreaking to think you could have gone through so much treatment back then all with a missed dx. Sadly, I think it happens more often than it really should. Fx the lap does the trick and you get lucky this round!!!
