Any one else with policystic ovarian syndrome???

Question

I have policystic ovarian syndrome . I have very irregular periods , have no sign of ovulating (ever) :(  and some hormone imbalances.  I've been to the Dr n done numerous treatments that have turned out not to help with getting pregers. And very expensive.  If any one else has any advise I'd appreciate it. I want nothing more in this world then to be able to have a family of my own. Thank you.

Answer

I too have PCOS but getting pregnant is not really my issue any more. I had irregular cycles as a teen and no cycle for 2 years after the birth of my first child at 19. It took another 5 years and a miscarriage before my 2nd child was conceived and now in my 30's my cycles are the most regular they have ever been but still had a miscarriage 5 months ago. Having PCOS is a war with my body but I do win a battle here and there. I took metforin years ago in my early 20's but haven't had to take any meds for it in so long. Sometimes you just have to take a break from trying and have fun with your SO again (sexual fun that is ?)

Answer

I have PCOS and one blocked tube no endometriosis trying for first baby. My OB is treating now with Metformin 1500mg daily and we are on our first round of Clomid (last pill is Saturday). My OB said if no success after 4 cycles of Clomid he will send me to a specialist. I struggle with excessive hair and weight issues. I have lost about 12ish lbs since we started trying in January. I ask my OB about gluten allergy which he said I didn't have but seems to be common with this syndrome.

Answer

So Metformin and Clomid or Femara haven't been prescribed to you?

Answer

What treatments have you had so far?

Answer

I to have PCOS. I'm currently trying for my first child. It has been 3 years now and I understand what it feels like to want a child so badly. I have taken clomid for three cycles (50mg) and they were all unsuccessful. I had an hsg done about four months ago. I was suppose to have an iui done this time but it got canceled. I took 5 mg of femara and was told to just try the old fashion way....so I'm currently in my two week wait in 4 DPO today and hopeful... When i took clomid I was with an OB but now I'm seeing a specialist.
