American actress Marilyn Monroe did not have children. She reportedly wanted to have children and was pregnant several times during her marriage to playwright Arthur Miller. However, two of those pregnancies ended in miscarriage and the other was an ectopic pregnancy. Her difficulty in having children was affected by her being diagnosed with endometriosis, a disorder of the female reproductive system characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue (uterine lining) in an abnormal location.
