Anyone having problems conceiving with PCOS?

Question

I have PCOS and my husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 5 months now and no luck. I started using ovulation test last month and this month and it comes up saying low fertility. So I called my doctor and come to find out I am not ovulating. Right now I just feel so depressed and don't know what to expect or what the next step is! Has anyone went through this same problem? Any advise would be wonderful!

Answer

My husband weren't actively trying, but weren't taking many precautions either. I was recently diagnosed with PCOS so I assumed it would take a bit longer to get prego. We had unprotected sex for about 3 months and nothing. I started on Metformin to help regulate my periods about a month ago, and I just found out I'm pregnant. Just keep trying and find a medicine that helps you to ovulate! Don't be discouraged :)

Answer

I have PCOS, diagnosed in late 2009. My husband and I TTC baby#1 for about 3 yes now. I must admit its has been pretty difficult. My hormones are all over the place, at days I'm depressed and cry a lot, or I have anxiety. I started metformin 1500mg about 5 months ago , and prometrium to help aid my cycles. I just pray and pray the little fairy passes by, I'd love love to be a mommy!!

Answer

It is so hard when you feel like you are broken and your body is betraying you! I get it, and I'm sure most everyone here with PCOS would tell you that it sucks!!! The complex and complicated long list of symptoms just makes everything that much harder and is so daunting when you are trying to overcome them!
I am a planner (I have PCOS and do not ovulate on my own- I'm taking My first round of meds now to help me ovulate) and it really helps that I have found an amazing Dr that listens to my concerns and takes me very seriously. He has helped me make a plan for TTC and supported me through my journey so far. I love being on this App and feeling the support and getting answers as well.
Good luck and baby dust to you!

Answer

I been married for 16 years and haven't been lucky jet but I also haven't done anything  big because of the cost of it. But one thing it's for sure I will never lose hope.

Answer

I've been going through the same thing. I'm on medicine to induce a period right now then start letrozole on day 3 of my cycle. Fingers crossed this will work. Both of our parents tired for years to have kids I just pray it will be easier on us. I definitely understand how you feel. I was diagnosed 2 weeks before my wedding I had PCOS. And it's been a very hard thing to cope with.

Answer

I have PCOS, but I'm not trying to conceive. I got diagnosed at a young age, and I was told if I don't take care of myself and take the medicine then I will have problems conceiving because basically what it is is that your not ovulating at all.

Answer

I just feel so lost and I feel like my husband just don't understand. I have to call the fertility specialist tomorrow. I just pray everyday that God will bless us with a baby but I just never thought we would need help. It's something you want so bad and can't have. Just hard. I am hoping to go on Clomid.

Answer

Yep, needed an HSG and femara, but it worked.
