Ashermans and endometriosis

[Guest guest]

Jen,

Welcome to the group. I haven't been keeping up with my e-mails and I just read your story. I am so so very sorry to hear it and I am sorry about your daughter. You have a complicated case and I have a thought I'd like to pass on and a I have a question.

Your theory about endometriosis and ashermans is exactly correct. I read it in the Merck Manual. It's a condition called retrograde menstruation and it is exactly as you described.

Question. Why is it exactly that you think you cannot have another baby? I know you have fears about chromosome quality, and I know your poor uterus and tubes have been through so much. But, if you decided that the risk for another chromosomal problem was remote (have you consulted with a genetisist on this?) and wanted to have another baby, what is it exactly that is stopping you? Is it that your uterus is not capable of carrying a pregnancy or is it your tubes? Because if it's only your tubes, there is an option with invitro fertilization (which many of us have had including me). I am sorry if you answered this question already and I missed it. I sincerely hope you get your pain under control so you can enjoy your blessed boys.
