Miscarriage Endometriosis/ Endo

Hello everyone.
I have recently had a miscarriage at 6 weeks. I have a scan tomorrow to confirm but I know its happened.

Prior to getting pregnant I was told I am likely to have Endometriosis. Having done some googling (why oh why did I do it to myself) I have read that those with endo are more likely to miscarry.

Has anyone had issues with endo and going full term? I am heartbroken. I am 32 and worried my clock is ticking.

Thank you for reading x

Hello @sleepysoozy

I'm sorry about what you're going through Flowers. I'm in a similar position so thought I'd reply. Maybe we can keep in touch.

I suspected that I have endo for over 3 years now but GP didn't take me seriously as my pain is more in my lower back and legs and my periods are not super heavy. I eventually went private in December but before I could have any tests, I found out I was pregnant so it was all cancelled. Sadly I miscarried at 11 weeks in March so I went back to the private doc. They wanted me to have an ultrasound so I just had that today. The sonographer thought it's very likely that I do have endo as she could see that my ovaries are "fixed". Apparently they should move a bit when she prods around in there but mine didn't Hmm I'm waiting for an appointment with the consultant now..

I'm very worried what this means for me. This was my second MC, I already had another MC last year. Really don't want it to happen again.

How are you feeling now? Did you have any more tests done?
