hi Sherm,

I am 33 and was diagnosed with PCOS and endo last year... I had a lap in June 03 and had ovarian drilling and removal of most of the endo and once that was gone was told I had a pretty good chance of falling pg. Unfortunately, nothing happened so have just had my first cycle of IVF (failed).

I was told that once the endo was mostly gone the next 12 months is the best window for falling pg.

Don't worry about your age, you are actually quite young! My understanding is that IVF can cancel out endo, in terms of being able to fall pg. Perhaps you need to discuss with your specialist about what your timeline will be once you have your second lap ie how long you will TTC before being considering ART. Personally I wouldn't leave it to mother nature for too long, because the younger you are the better your eggs and the better the chances that IVF would work.

I hope I'm helping, rather than making your worried!
