I have endomitriosis (ovarian cysts) and I have had one child and am about to be on my second! Make sure you have your timing just right. Endomitriosis ovarian cysts run in my family my mom had three successful pregnancies with it. My sister had surgery to have hers scraped off when she was 15-20 and she has had two children since then.

Yes. In 1986 I was in a great amount of pain, dr visits evey month. I was 20 at the time. I finally told him idc what you have to do, even give me a hysterectomy, I can't take the pain anymore. Sex was very painful and I was sick all the time. So after tests etc, I had surgery to remove an ovarian cyst the size of a mans fist. It was benign. About 1 1/2 months later maybe 2, I conceived my fist born. I know this answer comes almost 2 years later, but I'm hopeful it can still help someone.

Definitley in the same boat. Its so depressing at times. I was given the option of clomid metformin or bc for x amount of months they stop bc and try to get pregnant. With metformin id advice you to ask your docotr to check your hormones (thyroid, th, fsh, blood insulin etc. Mie came out as my pancread pushed out more insulin then my doctor like (even though it was still in normal but "hugh normal") worst side effect i have with it is i am nausea. And if i dont geta BFP in 6 months ill be adding clomid. I wont exhaust untill ive tried all options because if there is the will there is a way. So good luck to you.
