Yes, you can still get pregnant even with Endo. Just be prepared for it to possibly be a long hard road. I had my Endo surgery 4 years ago and still have not managed to get pregnant. Often-times Endo isn't the only problem a woman has if she has it and those other issues can cause their own infertility problems even after the Endo is taken care of. Maybe you can take TCM therapy fuyan pill, too. As this pill cured my endo thoroughly. Sometimes I think I am the lucky one. Good luck in your journey, hopefully its much shorter than mine is turning out to be.

Could you have endometriosis if you already have a child?
Yes. Having a child does not protect you from endometriosis. While having endometriosis often makes becoming pregnant difficult for women, becoming pregnant will also reduce the symptoms of endometriosis. So, being diagnosed with endometriosis after having a child makes it rather difficult for your doctor to determine whether you had endometriosis prior to the pregnancy or if it became an issue post-pregnancy - especially if you were positively diagnosed with endometriosis shortly after giving birth.

Umbilical hernia endometriosis?
Endometrial tissue lines the uterus. Each month, in tune with the menstrual cycle, the endometrial tissue thickens and is shed during menstruation. If you have endometriosis, it means that the same kind of tissue that lines your uterus is also growing in other parts of your body, usually in the abdomen. This can cause scar tissue to build up around your organs. Endometriosis may cause severe pain and abnormal bleeding, usually around the time of your period. Pain during intercourse is another common symptom. However, it is possible to have endometriosis and not have any symptoms. Endometriosis is a leading cause of infertility(inability to get pregnant). Often it is not diagnosed until a woman has trouble getting pregnant.

How to get pregnant when you have Endometriosis?
I have endometriosis and the doctors have told me that until a fertility test is taken you wont be able to know if you are or are not able to have children. However, they also mentioned that it will be more difficult to become pregnant. I have met several women who have endometriosis who got pregnant just fine. Getting pregnant and having endometriosis is based solely upon your individual genetic make-up.AnswerIt really depends on the extent of the Endometriosis. I am assuming that you were diagnosed through laparoscopy, which is the only true way of diagnosing Endometriosis. Therefore, you should ask the physician that performed the procedure exactly where the endometrial implants are located. If they are in the fallopian tubes or ovaries, there is usually too much scar tissue for an egg or sperm to travel through and result in pregnancy. Many women though, have been known to become pregnant with Endometriosis and have said that the disease virtually disappears or lessens after pregnancy due to not menstruating for 9 or more months. Check with your Dr, if you have insurance, the endometrial implants can often be removed with laser and covered by your plan.*****Don't give up home thogh cause I had a laparoscopy and was diagnosed with Endometriosis last summer 2010 that covered all of my organs from my servix all the way up to and including my liver, my tubes and ovaries weres severely scared as well as many of my organs and in November 2010 just after my birthday I found out I was pregnant and medically speaking it wasn't possible, but it happened. and now I have a two and a half month old son who is perfectly healthy and we couldn't be happier. As for the fertility tests they were all negative and i took them as instructed to the T as well as fertility medication. Eventually I quit worrying and stoped the meds and the tests and just went on with my life not just mentally but deep down.... and as I said previously wonderful blessing of a son was still the result for me.--Stevie1989
What is a hemorrhagic follicle?
a hemorrhagic follicle is sometimes called a chocolate cyst, and it occurs in the ovaries, I believe after ovulation. It is actually a bit of endometriosis inside of the ovary. I had this come up in an ultrasound and my Dr diagnosed me with endometriosis 1 year later, though not from the results from my ultrasound but from other signs and symptoms. My Surgeon removed the hemorrhagic follicle from my ovary when I went in for endometriosis surgery. I am not a Dr but a patient with endometriosis.
Is it possible to have endometriosis without a uterus?
Yes. Because the migration of uterine tissue to other parts of the body is a slow process, and it is possible that the endometriosis started forming before the uterus was removed during hysterectomy.
Can you have endometriosis at 69 years old?
Yes, it is possible to have endometriosis at 69 years old. While most cases are diagnosed in women of reproductive age, endometriosis can persist after menopause due to the presence of estrogen-producing tissues outside the uterus. Symptoms may vary in older women but can still include pelvic pain, irregular bleeding, and gastrointestinal issues. Consulting with a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and management is recommended.
Could you be pregnant if your breast are tender and you have mild cramping and your lower and upper back hurts?
It could possibly mean that. I can tell when I am ovulating because I will get a sharp pain on one side where my ovary is. It should alternate sides each month. But everyone is different. You might possible have endometriosis. I used to have period cramps everyday for a year...I found out that I had endometriosis. I a little!
Can a man get endometriosis from his female partner?
No. Endometriosis is not contagious. However, in addition to women, men born with a uterus can also develop the disease. Although extremely rare, it's possible for cisgender males to have Endometriosis in the bladder, prostate, or abdominal wall.
