Endometriosis stage 4 TTC. Line eyes

I am trying to conceive after laparoscopy to get minimise stage 4 endometriosis.

we had IVF last year and I started getting very faint positive tests around 8dp5dt. Unfortunately it ended in an ectopic.

now I’m trying to conceive naturally whilst we save for more IVF. I’m currently 11dpo. And could potentially have something on test but sooooooooooooo faint I think I have a complete set of line eyes. Will try and add a picture. Can only see anything if it’s in black and white. Does anyone know who to compare when I showed up positive from IVF to a natural cycle? Would it be equivalent to 13dpo??

Thankyou sorry if this is confusing. It was the only time I’ve had a positive test and trying to compare time to positive tests. Absolutely desperate to be pregnant have been trying to conceive for 4 years. And only found how sever my endometriosis was when I had emergency surgery for the ruptured abdominal ectopic.

My commiserations for your challenges.

I can see a very faint line. With the caveat that results are most accurate when period is due. Good luck!

Ooo I can see it good luck 🤞🏼

Thankyou ladies, I could barely see it in real life but in black and white it seemed more apparent. It wasn’t an early response test think it measures at 25 hcg. I know realistically I just need to wait but Its so hard not to obsess. I resisted buying more tests today I will wait until day AF is due and try testing again.

would be incredible if I was. It’s my first cycle post excision surgery, which I paid for privately as the NHS wait was far too long. So will take a while to accumulate money for IVF again and to be honest hated everything about IVF and was left with feeling very depressed and out of sorts for quite a few months after.

fellow stage 4 who also conceived first month post surgery after 4 years!

I see a line - keeping everything crossed

That’s so reassuring, congratulations! It feels like it will never happen at the moment! Will update in a couple of days when I have more tests or AF arrives! Hopefully with a positive!!!

I can see it! Fingers crossed- I have endo and it took bloody years to get my bfp and I couldn't believe it when I did

Belladonna432 · 05/01/2024 21:32

Aww it gives me hope that you were able to conceive! Fingers crossed the surgery will make it happen for us!

I'm so sorry to read this. I'm thinking of you.

Just to update my previous post, we were just booking into to do next round of IVF and my some miracle 2 days before our first appointment I was feeling really nauseous and didn’t want morning coffee. DH forced me to take a test and it came up POSITIVE immediately!! I am now nearly 10 weeks pregnant and just waiting impatiently for next scan!!!!!! First time ever we have conceived naturally! My mind is blown there were many tears.
