Question

I have just been diagnosed with PCOS and need support

Hi everyone. My husband and i have been TTC for 9 months since coming off the contraceptive implant. AF has been so irregular so the doctors did a blood test and ultrasound which confirmed i have polycistic ovaries. I just wondered if some of you could share your experiences with me of TTC with PCOS. Thank you x

So weird that i see this today of all days. I was diagnosed 9 months ago with PCOS and told i cannot ever have children again. So that was that and my husband and i never thought about it again. Told i took a test as i was feeling meh and im positive. Don't always believe what the doctors say. I havent had a period since October 2014!!!

Hi Anneapple, please try not to be disheartened. I have PCOS and conceived twice, very quickly. My fertility doctor says because I am ovulating my chances of pregnancy are good. I only recently discovered that because I'm polycystic I have higher egg reserves and that means I would probably respond to ivf well.

Unfortunately I miscarried twice, so haven't had a baby yet, but don't despair at your diagnosis alone.

One thing my doc said is that I am ovulating (confirmed by my OPKs and cycles shorter than 35 days) because I am below the weight threshold my body needs to do so. I am 73kg and 165cm, so technically overweight, but not obese.

Also, is it possible that the implant may be partially responsible for the irregular periods? When I came off the pill many years ago I didn't have a period for a whole year!

I was diagnosed with PCOS in my early 30's first pregnancy was achieved with 3-4 rounds of clomid..I went on to have 2 more children naturally and now my periods are pretty regular but before being diagnosed I would miss a month sometimes two months of my period. Don't get discouraged it will happen!! Good luck...
