I 27f and my partner 28m have semi been trying to get pregnant for just shy of a year now. I have stage 4 endometriosis and had an excision in high school along with 2 rounds or depot lupron injections and recently got a formal PCOS diagnosis. I got my IUD out in March and shit hit the fan in my personal life but we’ve still been trying, especially August to now with no luck.

Today I took another negative test (I take them regularly to be safe). I then got on my social media accounts (X, Instagram, Facebook) and I shit you not every 3 posts were pregnancy announcements. It’s really making me feel down.

I’ve done extra progesterone to kickstart cycles and some other hormone day 3-7 to kickstart ovulation but so far no luck.

I don’t think my husband is as eager to get pregnant as I am but I’ve also realized men don’t have the same “pushes” to parenthood as women do. I just hate that not many of our friends are in the same boat and were not trying to be super open about it because of my fertility issues from the PCOS and Endo. I don’t really have anyone to talk to about it that understands where I’m coming from.
