Hi
I have had endometriosis for 10 years when I look back at my history. Was diagnosed only two years ago with severe endometriosis. I had a laproscopy a little over a year ago, and in October last year had a major surgery because of my endometriosis. My ovaries, stomach and kidney were all wrapped up together, and this was causing my stomach to die. 5cm of it had to be cut off, and I was in hospital for 3 weeks. The doctor said I had been like this for at least 6 years, so I had been in alot of pain, and all of it went undiagnosed until I started I.V.F. The I.V.F has been postponed until I finish all surgeries. I have a minor one next week. As you can tell my journey has been quite traumatic. Because of my condition I have been given two funded rounds of I.V.F treatment. I have ordered the cleansing kit, endowise kit and message therapy, bee propolis, pycnogenol and whey powder. And am about to purchase organic spirulina, omega 3 and multidophilus. I have just started eating organically, and juice vegetables, and am currently taking a multivitamin, and liquid iron and maca in my juices. Also I walk and do pilates. After I take these kits, what would you recommend I do next. Just want to know that I'm on the right track, want to get healthy before I look at doing I.V.F.
(I better also note that in New Zealand progesterone can only be prescribed by a Dr, so these substances have been discarded upon entry. Will this affect me at all?? My Dr does not recommend the use of such substance for my condition. Also they keep prescribing anti-inflammatory pills which I can say do not work, so I have stopped taking them.)

In order for the EndoWise kit to have the best effects it should be used consecutively for at least three months. It sounds like everything you are doing is good. It will take some time to have its effect so stick to it. You also want to not mix all of these supplements and herbs with IVF medications as we do not know how they will interact.

It seems like there may be some stress due to all the surgeries you have had and are going through. You may want to look into a Mind Body program such as www.CircleBloomCD.com . It can help with the stress now, during extraction and implantation of the fertilized egg. Studies have also shown that mind+body programs help increase the success rate of IVF.

Please keep us updated. I want to know how you are doing.
