Infertility, Secondary Support Group

"Secondary infertility" is difficulty conceiving after already having conceived and carried a normal pregnancy. Apart from various medical conditions (e.g. hormonal), this may come as a result of age and stress felt to provide a sibling for their first child.

Results from Laproscopy

I had diagnostic Laproscopy surgery on Monday. My Fiance and I have been trying to concieve for over two years and have both been through all the tests with no known reason for our infertility. My doctor did however find some endeometrosis (sp) during the surgery and removed what she could. I didn't get to talk with her much after the surgery as I was not really with it due to the anetheisa. I was just wandering if there is anyone out there who conceived right away or soon after having this procedure done? I am hopeful now that something was finally found that could be the reason we have not been able to get pregnant that we may now stand a chance.

My cousin conceived her only two kids following laps. And she felt tremendous relief from her endometriosis. She's a huge fan of them.

I am glad you asked this question because I am going to have this done after I get AF when this m/c is done. I have been through all the other tests too and nothing has come up and my dr. recommended trying this to see if there is anything in there that needs to come out. I can get pregnant, I just can't keep them...so I am hoping this is my answer too.
One of my friends on here told me that a friend of hers had it done and then got pregnant the next month and is due soon. So I am hoping it will work! GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Depending upon my results from the clomid challenge once AF starts, lap will be the next step for me too. Fingers crossed for you both. Good luck!

I don't have advice so much as a question. How did you know that you had endo? Did you have symptoms or did your RE do the lap just to rule it out? My docs haven't ever even suggested it and I don't have symptoms but there are those who have endo w/o symptoms.
I had the HSG test and numerous u/s both with positive results.
Thanks! T

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
