Question

Ttc with pcos

I have a 13 month old son who i consieved naturally after going off the pill which i was on for 8 years. I consieved him within 3 months.
I have now been ttc our second child for 10 months now but have not been on any birth control since my son has been born. I breastfed for 2 months and didnt get my first period until he was 4 months old.
I am so confused if i should go on the pill again for a while, try opks, preseed and temping or just go see a specialist. My doc just sais there is nothing to worry about cause i consieved my son naturally.
I have also had 2 suspected very early miscarriages

I know that PCOS tends to make TTC more difficult. I've heard a lot of women with PCOS say that a keto diet seemed to help them conceive.

I don't know how old you are but I know that the general rule of thumb is that you should see a doctor after you've been TTC for 1 year. Unless you're 35+ and then you should see a doctor after 6 months of TTC.

If you make it to whichever of those guidelines applies to you and your doctor still doesn't want to discuss options with you, you may want to find another doctor. It is not unreasonable at all at that point to at least have some testing done to see what might could be done to increase your odds.

Hopefully you get your BFP soon!

Thank you. Im 24. I have been eating keto for 4 months now and i am back to the weight i was when i concieved my son and continuing to lose more weight. My periods are finally regular the past 2 months since having my son. So it is definitely helping my cycles and weight loss.
I think ill go backto him and get a referal to see a specialist.
Thanks for the advice.
