Ros,

I don't believe that people are destined to be infertile, any more than I believe that we are destined for anything else. The kind of health conditions you are talking about can be cumulative, circumstantial or inter-related for various reasons. The fact is that we now live in an age where we don't have to accept this situation. I was just saying to one of the other ladies on here that I look at infertility as I would view any other health problem. If I had cancer, would I refuse chemotherapy? Of course I wouldn't. I have the bad luck to have endo which has caused delays and problems with conception. If there is a chance of fixing it, why not take that chance? I know myself too well to let this go by. I know that in future years, I would regret not taking this path as it presented itself. Ultimately of course, the decision is up to each individual but don't ever let yourself be convinced that it is not your right to try to fix something in your body that isn't working.

All that said, I wish you best of luck with your treatment and I hope you and your partner can come to a decision you are both happy with.

Melissa
