My daughters inherited endromitiosis and poly cysytic ovarian syndrome. They have more than likely inherited it me and my side of the family. I did not know that ran in my family till after my younger daughter had a total hysterectomy at 18. She will never know the joy (and pain) I had given birth to my children. But she has a great outlook on life. I actually posed the reverse question on her. She told me when she is a little older she plan to adopt children and she said she is very happy she is here.My son will probably pass on the gene to any daughters he has in the future. But he says life is a gamble and he plans to live life to the fullest. So If I was to know ahead of time I would have considered it more deeply, but I didn't and I am very glad I have my three wonderful children. They are great people with big hearts. So I think the trade off is good for me. The joke in our family is my son will have to have all the kids the girls couldn't. He says probably not.
