endometrial thickening+ovarian cysts=infertility??

Tags: endometriosis, endometrial thickening, ovarian cyst, Infertility

I am a 26 yr old female & I have mild endometrial thickening as well as bilateral cysts. I have been told that the endometrial thickening is a more technical term for endometriosis. Does anyone know if thats true? Also I was wondering... what are my chances of having a baby with having both of these issues WITHOUT having to go through the whole fertility drugs IVF & stuff like that?

It's true that endometrial thickening is a more technical term for endometriosis. I'm 30 years old and i'm also diagnosis with that after i undergo transvaginal ultrasound. According to my OB it's a thickening of a blood in our uterus. The normal lining in our uterus must grow inside but in this case it grows outside like in the ovary and during our ovulation period that blood that suppose to go out, goes inside that linings that's why it is thickened.
I suggest that you must visit an OB for your proper medication.
