be able to have a child naturally? iam not sure if i even have it yet, though i do have alot of the signs. i made an appt. to see a dr. next thurs. who will do an U/S and other tests first, but iam really scared. my daughter came about through iui/comid, and we are trying naturally w/o any luck, as we had before. i have increasingly worse periods, so bad i can't stand it, and no pain during intercourse though, so iam confused, but happy i have an appt. made. if you could share your own stories...that would be awesome!
thanks
hugs, michelle

Hi, needadvise. Clomid is usually given to women who aren't ovulating, so that's more of a PCOS (polycysitic ovarian syndrome) characteristic or a hormone problem than an endometriosis problem. Anovulation is not usually an endo symptom. If you used clomid and IUI (intra-uterine insemination), the clomid caused you to ovulate, and then they injected sperm into your uterus/bypassing the vagina. So your previous pregnancy was achieved regardless of whether or not you have endometriosis, and the problem then was ovulation, since they gave you clomid and apparently it worked. There is no real guage of having endometriosis and being infertile. Most women w/ endo are fertile, while endometriosis is a major cause of infertility in all infertility cases total. Feel free to browse through the infertility/fertility advice and support forum. I think you'll find a thread similar to what you are asking in this one. Welcome to the forum!
