Reply to Adrienne …… how strange, got same name I found it hard to read your comment you left me. I’m so sorry for what uve had to go through, hopefully you had the support of your family all of the way. I really hope the IVF treatment works, and hope you will have the joy of having children best wishes for you and your future x x

Hey thanx for reading my story. Umm i was told by the doctor’s that i would in future be able to have children if i wanted. The only thing would be is to have regular check up and more scans, just to take extra care of the unborn child. I was told i shouldnt have anything to worry about however they always can give u counselling to help if worried. I was told that id even beable to have a natural normal birth. hope this helps x x

my name is adrienne. My family explains my childhood similar as above. I 24 and it has been difficult these past few years. I have had two other surgeries in the past 3 years. One that was a very large mass that spread to my tube and ovaries and required my small intestines all some female organs to be removed. Now i have one ovary and a hopeless block tube. HArd news to get after this birth defect and then get my tube and ovaries removed and wanting a family someday! So I am praying and saving for IVF one day. My scar is from eac side. I have to have several other repairs as a child in 84. Hernia repair, appendiz and some others.
