Hi mit-hope,
I am 41 with endometriosis. I have been through everything to try to have a baby: diet(even eating pineapple cores), yoga, acupuncture, failed IUIs, and failed IVFs, and suffered 2 IVF miscarriages. The IVF process is quite the journey....
I would like to offer you some positive advice. I felt very alone when I began the process, and I feel for anyone that has to take these measures. IVF is not for wimps. Know you are brave to take this step.
I would suggest going to couple's counseling if you have a partner/spouse (my husband and I wished we had done that from the beginning, as it helped us both), create a comforting routine for your injections, keep hope alive, and reach out to people when need it. You are not alone, and endo does not define you as a person.
If you ever need anything or have any questions about the process, I am here. I wish you all of the best. Love and hugs
