Endometriosis affects around 7 women in 100 and can cause a great deal of discomfort and emotional trauma which may mean coming to terms with the fact that the dream of having a family may never comet true.
However, whist the chances of conceiving with this disease is certainly lower than without, there are a lot of holistic and fertility treatments out there that could increase your chances of having the family you've always wanted.
The options at your disposal are very much dependent on the stage at which your disease is.
There are four main grades of endometriosis ranging from minimal to severe.
Some treatments involve surgery to remove the disease; this can be especially effective during the milder stages of endometriosis.
However not all fertility treatments require invasive surgery, drugs can also be used to help the chances of pregnancy by delaying ovulation while the woman's estrogen levels are able to fully replenish itself.
Another increasingly popular method of increasing the chances of conceiving involves implanting a fertilized egg directly into the woman's uterus, bypassing the fallopian tube blockage problem.
As the technology improves and surgeries like this become more and more common place, the success rates for this kind of treatment continues to climb.
A large number of women (has grown considerably over the past few years) are reporting great results from natural medical treatments starting from just changing their diet and lifestyle to remove junk, caffeine, alcohol and sugar.
Studies are showing that it is preferential to avoid processed foods and foods that contain preservatives but eat organic food in its place.
As a summary, endometriosis is most certainly a distressing disease to have and can a lot of pain, however it does not mean that the dream of having a child and a family should necessarily be lost.
With the right attitude and medication it has proven to be possible to increase your chances of conceiving quite substantially
