Glad you have some answers and wishing you a speedy recovery.
Did you have any symptoms of endo? How did the Dr know you needed this surgery? Asking because my RE said he sees the start of endometrioma on my ovary.
When can you start IVF again?
She didn't see anything in my ovary when she checked at my consult. But whereas many people woman have silent Endo that gets diagnosed through inability to get pregnant, I had screaming from the mountaintops Endo. Lol.
I was diagnosed with dismennorhea as a young teenager. Horrific periods, heavy bleeding and cramping and constipation/diarrhea every month. Eventually was told to go on the pill to get rid of symptoms . When I got married I went off pill. Horror began again. Did IVF with ex... No pregnancies. Homeopathy helped reduce my menstrual hell, but I just had an early pregnancy loss this spring.l after doing IVF with genetic testing. When I met with the dr I also told her I have discomfort during sex and discomfort during bowel movements when I have my period.
All of this led her (and Dr B. When I did a phone consult with him) to say they were sure I had Endo.
I see her in two weeks to find out if I need one or two months to heal before IVF.
Thanks for all the info and I'm sorry for all you have been through. I'm hoping this surgery will also ease some of those symptoms. What Dr. are you working with? What RE did you switch to? I know you weren't happy with your first RE. Wishing you the best of luck with your IVF which will be here before you know it!
I switched to Kofinas fertility (George kofinas' practice) in Brooklyn. Dr. narine did my surgery. I'm also being supported by my perinatal dr who is Alex Kofinas on garden city.
Thank you!!!
Thanks for sharing. I've heard a lot about the Kofinas in Garden City but not the one in Brooklyn. How is he and how is the practice? Is Kofinas in Garden City managing your immune protocol? Did he send you for a lot of testing?

I am at the beginning of working with George Kofinas. Yup, Kofinas in garden city is managing my immune protocol more because I started with him. I have a full plan with intrepalids eventually, metanx, lovenox eventually, networking, lots of supplements through Alex. Bc I live in Nassau they will let me do the beginning and end of IVF monitoring in Brooklyn with George, but the in between monitoring i can do with Alex. Works out well.

Wow. So you do have Endo? At least there is an answer there and a plan. Hope you are feeling well!
Yeah.... She wasn't going in for just a biopsy. Unlike silent Endo patients where there is a wondering if Endo might be there, my doctor was 95% certain Endo was going to be there. Dr B. was certain to from my brief consult with him too. I have had classic symptoms of it starting since my teen years.
