My name is Catrina and my husbands name is Frankie, and I have endometriosis, commonly referred to as endo for those who may not know. Endo is a common health condition in women where tissues grow outside of the uterus, causing pain and, often, infertility. Endo affects more than 11% of American women between 15 and 44. My partner and I have tried to get pregnant; however, endo has made that journey a dead end. After 2 IUIs and 4 miscarriages the doctor has decided our next option is IVF. We have already had to pay out of pocket for all of our fertility treatments thus far. Our biggest dream is to grow our family and have one (or more) healthy baby!
