Just need some encouragement!
Hey ladies, I'm new here! My husband and I just started TTC. I'm 22 years old and I have been on birth control for 10 years. When I was younger, my periods were the worrrrssstt. Like irregular, crazy heavy, incredibly painful...y'all know--the works. My OBGYN put me on birth control and told me that I have more than likely PCOS. I've been back to the OBGYN for Pap Smear after I became sexually active and all but this is the first time in my life I've ever tried to have a baby, and I recently moved states so I'm trying to find a doctor here that I can start going too because now that I'm TTC, I have a billion questions. I realize that I honestly know nothing about my PCOS other than some horror stories I found on the internet.
I've done so much research about PCOS and birth control pills and everything I read seems so bleak and sad and negative. Honestly I just need to hear some encouragement. I have heard and read a ton of the negative and i realize this must be an incredibly tough road but right now I need to hear some success stories. So please--whether you have PCOS, been on BC for forever, or have had crazy periods like me and you have had baby success...please share your story with me!
