Newly dxed

I am 27 yrs old, with no children. I have been having left pelvic pain during menstruation and intercourse. I have regular monthly periods, with very heavy bleeding. I went for a transvagial US which showed a 11cm cyst on my left ovary as well as a 5cm cyst on my right ovary. At first my Dr thought it was a dermoid cyst. After a CT scan he believes they are endemetriomias. I was informed that I would have to have them both removed. My Dr said there is no chance in saving my left ovary, and a 50/50 chance on saving part of or the whole right ovary.
My husband and I would like to have children. Removing 1 or both ovaries seems so radical considering we haven't even began trying to get pregnant.
What has been your experience with larger cysts? Based on the CT scan findings he assumes I have stage III
