PCOS and Endometriosis
by banana0875, Jan 16, 2008 05:11PM
I was recently diagnosed with PCOS. I was also diagnosed with endometriosis 7 years ago and have had several surgeries. My endo is fairly under control with the bcp's (Micronor) that I am on but it is not controlling the PCOS. I am at a lost as to what I should do. Is there anyone that has both of these issues as well?? I am starting to get discuraged. Also when we decide to try...how realistic will it be for me to have children?

I have both as well. The endo I was told about a year and a half ago, and the PCOS was just a few months ago. It is possible to have children with both! So dont get discouraged, it will happen. Stay strong, and just talk with your doctors about any concerns you have!
