Guest guest Posted December 29, 2001 Report Share Posted December 29, 2001 I have endometrosis and the only symptoms i have had is painful periods. My periods also have slowed way down and iam 34 now and the docs have said that some of the meds i have taken in the past have messed with fertility. You need to have your new OBGYN do hormone level blood test just because the test says your ovulating doesnt mean you are putting out enough of the hormone u need during you fertile time. My docs have told me the MTX and the length of time i have been on it is one of the main culprits and i cant remeber how long u took the MTX. Also have them check your pituitary gland if it has shown signs of inflamation from the stills it can also cause infertility problems. . I just found out this during my last stay regarding the pituitary gland it wasnt producing the right amounts of whatever it produces sorry i cant remeber the names but i was out of it when they talked with me and i cant read my moms notes LOL i will have to ask her. Love Connie Ps goodluck with getting pregnate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
