how did it make it worse?

I've been told it could be from having kids at an early age and having so many so close together without giving my body time to heal. I just know after having my last child, I had to have surgery. It had built up so much, that I was hurting bad. I never felt that way before I had my last child.

Really? That's terrible! Had they told you it would get better with pregnancy too? That's what they told me...but I've never been pregnant. That really sucks!

im sorry to hear that, they just cant get rid of mine

No. I have never been told that. My doctor has done surgery on me. I felt better at the time, but within several years it all came back and twice as bad. I suffer now from it. He won't do another surgery. He is afraid it will come back much worser.

the docotrs did tell me if i had a baby it could cure me

I'm sorry. It's a never ending story with this. I can sympathize with you all that have it. I suffer from it also.

thankyou, (hugs)

Have you done research on it?

Your welcome. Hugs back.

yes, it says in some women it works, and sometimes it doesnt and it can make it worse, everyones different

Yeah. Everyone is different. You just have to decide for yourself if you want to take that risk.

yes thats right, and as mine as failed with about 7 operations, im doubtful it would cure me anyway, and thats if i can get pregnant

I have scar tissue so bad, that it affects my bladder, intestines, and stomach.

same here, im waiting for a operation on my bladder, and the endo as also spread to my bowells and twisted them

I'm sure you can. I got endo after having my first child. I've had 3 since then.

congrats, and i really hope i can get pregnant, else thats my dreams shattered

I am so sorry. I feel for you. I hope everything goes well for you. Endo has spread to my intestines. I cannot have bowel movements without medicines to make me go.

Women, unlike men, seem to be wired in such a way as to forget the severity of pain over time. It's why we can see something that we know would hurt and sympathize, but not feel as if it happened to us. But when men see something that hurts, in a way, they experience the pain over again, if it is something that has happened to them.

One day in high school, I did the splits. Only like sliding into a base. I was walking down a slick tile hallway at a dance in my nylons. No shoes allowed in the gym at dances. I started to slip and just went into the splits and slid to the group of friends I was heading for. It was funny. I'm used to the splits so it didn't bother me a bit.

Three guys grabbed their crotches and collapsed to the floor in pain. Just from the memory of getting hurt there.

were so alike, i have to use laxatives else i dont go to the loo for 3 to 4 weeks, and my tummy is always distended too
