I don t understand why sucChatDoctorplication even after removal of endometriosis. Please help as i and my husband are desperately TTc. How long will it take me to conceive and will it be normal pregnancy.
[|AI|]  Hello, and I hope I can help you today. Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pelvis that cannot be removed completely by surgery.  The reason is that endometriosis implants can be microscopic, which is why ultimately most women are treated with hormones to suppress their menstrual cycle for 3 to 6 months after endometriosis surgery. This helps to prevent recurrence of cysts and scarring within your pelvis which may increase your chance of conceiving. However, while you are on the Leuprolide (LU pron) injection, you will not menstruate regularly and is unlikely that you will become pregnant. Your greatest chance of pregnancy is in the first six months after stopping the medication.  Because you only 32 years old, I would recommend doing a full six months of Lu pron injections before trying to conceive again. So again to clarify, you do not need Lu pron because you had any complications from your surgery, rather the issue is that Lu pron reduces your risk of recurrence of endometriosis after surgery, which will help to maximize your chance of conceiving later. So there is no reason why you and your husband cannot have unprotected intercourse while you on the Lu pron treatment, however the goal of the treatment is to reduce the inflammation your pelvis after the surgery to help you heal and also to reset your hormones so when you go off the Lu pron you will be in the best shape to conceive. I hope that I was able to adequately answer your question today, and that I helped clarify the role Lu pron has in the treatment of endometriosis. I wish you and your husband the best of luck in conceiving,
