Hello
Thanks Natasha for your reply. I forgot to mention that they have suggested surgery to get a fibroid in my uterus removed. There is a 6 month waiting list for this. Like you, I too want to get this out of the way so I can get on with IVF and assessing how many eggs I have. I had a blood test to assess my AMH levels. I’m hoping this comes back positive. I have PCOS and apparently this means you have a high level of AMH but on a blood test that I had before Christmas it said I had low levels?? So I don’t really know what to believe right now. My next consultation is on 6 Feb. I’m sorry to hear you have lost a part of your ovary. It’s awful isn’t it. I’m hoping my egg reserve isn’t too low but I haven’t had it tested yet. Good luck with everything and I hope you get some results soon
Hi Caroline, my surgeon won't do anymore operations on me until I'm done trying with ivf. She said it could do more damage than good I'm afraid. Mine is also severe and I frequently have endometriomas in my ovaries. I lost half an ovary during my last operation. I'm now moving on to donor eggs or embryo as I have such a diminished ovarian reserve and the quality of the 2 eggs I got was so poor. I have the same worry as I have endometriomas in my uterus which will obviously leave damage. So I'm in a mad rush to find a clinic with no waiting time for donor recipients as my own has a year long list and I know my endo will just get worse. Hope that helps 💛
