Control the endo: The birth control pills are hopefully controlling your pain and the growth of the endometriosis. The fewer surgeries you have the better. If you have trouble getting pregnant when you are ready, then you might talk with your doctor about a laparoscopy, either traditional or robotic. You may not have any trouble getting pregnant.
