On a serious note, regarding the endometriosis diagnosis: I hope you have a compassionate provider and have also had a diagnostic surgery and effective treatment plan. Endometriosis can only be diagnosed with surgery. Also, people with endometriosis can and do get pregnant, so please use contraception if you are sexually active with a man. I know too many people who were told or assumed they couldn’t get pregnant and then voila, unplanned pregnancy.” “I was hoping someone would mention this! I have 3 friends in the last year that were told because of endometriosis they likely wouldn’t get pregnant naturally, so they weren’t careful, because why would they be? One had their baby yesterday, one is 4 months old, and one is 7 months pregnant. If you really don’t want kids, still use contraception.”
