I am 32 and found out I had endometriosis when I started to try to get pregnant (6 ½ years) ago. My doctor finally found a large cyst on my ovary and I then had surgery to remove the cyst and the rest of the endometriosis. I had bad cramps during my menstrual cycle before, but I just took Alive and it alleviated the pain. The doctor was surprised that I did not have severe pain due to the extent of my endometriosis. I had a baby 6 months ago by going through IVF and just started my menstrual cycle again. I was told that the pregnancy would help with my endometriosis and I haven’t had any cramping yet. I am hoping to choose the right birth control so that I may be able to get pregnant without IVF in the next couple of years.
