WWYD - Bring TTC forward due to Endo?

Hi everyone,

Looking for wisdom/encouragement/advice...

I have deep infiltrating endometriosis and a hormonal imbalance. I'm 27. I've seen a few doctors, who all recommend TTC sooner rather than later based on my endo history/health.

Without the DRs concerns, I wouldn't even be considering TTC right now, as I've always envisioned being in my early 30s at least before pregnancy/kids. I don't feel 'ready', although maybe nobody ever does?

My health is quite bad because of endo. Days off work in bed etc & my cycle is shortening which means x2 periods a month and all the issues that come with it. My body isn't getting a break like it used to. I feel like it's getting worse with every period. I am wondering if I'd even cope with a baby when my periods come back.

I am hoping to hear from women who've had deeply infiltrating endo and gone on to have children naturally and if their endo improved after pregnancy or not? I am feeling quite rushed into a decision right now after my latest appointment :(
