Ok, so my problems never seem to end. I
had my ultrascan done today by one of the
leading specialist on the island and he
assures me that I don't have a 'bicornuate
uterus' as was told to me by my ob/gyn.
He said that he can see no signs of that
at all. But he did say that he is seeing
some abnormailty where the baby shud be
housed which might be what is causing the
reatard growth, thus why it dies, not
getting enuff nourshiment. It now appears
as though I might have endometriosis
{sigh}. I remember when I was a teenager
my mother had the same thing and she had
to have a radical hystorectomy, and she
was 40/42, I am like 4 years away from
there. So the specialist said that he
will write a report back to my ob/gyn
suggesting that he schedules me for the
'dye test' just to be sure, becuz that is
the only thing that he cud see that wud be
stopping me from carrying a baby to term.
He said everything else looks just fine,
no problems with my ovaries, my tubes are
not at all blocked, just that slight
abnormality he is seeing inside my actual
uterus.
Does having endo. Stop you from carrying
a baby to term? I read somewhere that it
causes infertility :? Like I cud handle
anymore bad news. Anyone can shed some
light please.
Thank you :cry:

I am looking at my maternity/pediatric
nursing textbook right now. It says that
endometriosis appears to cause infertility
in some women. So it sounds like you
still have a good chance! I hope all goes
well for you.

My doc said I might have endometriosis as
well. Pcos on top of it. I was pregnant
withing 1.5 months. I would get another
opinion, and go from there.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
are you pregnant now or did you have the
baby already?
The thing is that a friend of mine told me
that I shudn't even be able to get
pregnant at all if I had endo. But the
fact that I keep miscarrying has me so
worried. Maybe I am too old to have
anymore babies. I guess my eggs have just
gotten to old or something. This is so
depressing :(
