Silent endo stories

Would love to hear experiences of those who ended up being diagnosed with silent endo or adenomyosis. We’ve had 7 early losses and now also with 2 euploid donated embryos. The farthest we’ve made it is 8 weeks. I’ve had several doctors over the years and I have PCOS and my husband has chromosomal translocations, so this is what our first 5 losses were attributed to. My doctor doesn’t want to change our protocol for our next embryo transfer but I feel like we’re missing something. Of all the doctors I’ve seen over the years, none seem very concerned about possible endo as we get implantation, but then the babies fail to grow/progress. Am I crazy for wanting to proceed with an ex lap just to be sure? I don’t want to have an unnecessary surgery but it seems strange to me that no one has wanted to rule it out yet.

2 embryos frozen together

Trying to decide how to proceed with our 3rd FET. For context, I’m 33 and we have 5 donor embryos from another family. First 2 transfers were with highly graded euploid embryos. First one ended in a chemical and second miscarried at 8 weeks and was measuring behind when it was growing.

We have one tested embryo and 2 untested ones left. The 2 untested are 3AB and frozen together in a straw. Since we don’t quite know why the embryos are implanting but not growing despite lots of testing, my doctor wants to thaw the untested ones, separate them and just transfer one at a time. I’m worried about the risks of losing one by doing this, but also know the risks of multiples are high too. Has anyone been in a similar situation? She thinks there is something going on making my uterus a slightly less than ideal space so that it would be “asking a lot of it” per se to potentially try and support 2 babies.
