Hi,

I'm working on FL 1953 and am going to start Ivermectin. Yeast and bartonella are trapped in my biofilm.

I have a perfectly normal life given that I do not eat gluten or sugar.

I am 35 and unmarried. I want to get married and have children. I am actively dating various men, although I am not in anything exclusive right now.

My dr says it will take 1-2 years to clear my infections. I would like to have them cleared before getting pregnant, except then I will be in my late 30s, and I don't want to start getting pregnant then.

I would like to freeze my eggs and then, once I clear the infections, do IVF, or, if I get married sooner and my husband doesn't want to wait, do gestational surrogacy.

My problem is I don't know when to tell men all this. I end up dating a lot of men in their 40s who see me as a still-fertile woman. And I am still fertile, I just don't want to be pregnant for the next year or two.

I am so afraid that potential prospects will reject me when they hear the news.

Any thoughts? I'm pretty distressed about this.

Thank you!!!

Have you considered taking systemic enzymes for the biofilm.

Look into Lufenuron to treat the yeast.

I hope you can find someone who wants a family as much as you do.

I take bolouke and serrapeptase.

I've been a little afraid of the Lufenuron. I did really well on Botanifuge and killed a lot of parasite/biofilm/yeast, but I seem to have gone as far as I can w/ it.

I say deal with one thing at a time....SO

Date, get to know someone, no need to put your whole life out there when you don't even know if the person is the one (this takes time).

If he asks if you want kids-- say yes! I think you can discuss details later. Its not like you are infertile or dont want kids, youre just going to be going about it a bit differently.

And who knows, maybe you'll be healthy sooner than you think.

My point is: worry about it when it becomes more relevant. It sounds like you are still just dating, so I would worry about it when you're starting to get serious with someone.

Thanks so much.

The whole thing just sounds like something out of a sci-fi novel, and I'm just scared about scaring someone away.

But it's true, it's not like I'm infertile or don't want kids, I just don't want to be pregnant for the next year or two.

Have a good day, everyone!
