I was just diagnosed with PCOS with elevated DHEA in the higher 800s. I’m 23, my husband is 24, and we’re trying to have our first baby. My doctor hasn’t put me on any hormonal medication yet so we’re going natural for now. I’m <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android">tracking ovulation</a> with tests, cm, and multiple app estimates. I’ve gotten a positive LH just tonight (9/11) so I do know I’m at lease producing the correct hormones to ovulate. We’re using preseed lubricants, I’ve cut out alcohol and I’m trying to better my diet, however my doctor has put me on a glp-1 medication to help my weight and PCOS symptoms. I’m currently 5’4” and 200lbs.

This is technically our fourth month actively trying, however we haven’t used any protection since we got married in October 2023. I’m struggling to find home remedies for my type of PCOS and nobody in my family has had trouble TTC or has been diagnosed with PCOS. My mom had three kids by 23 and my grandparents were very young also.

I’ve been off of all kinds of birth control since 2020, I had a couple different brands of the pill and two rounds of nexplanon prior. My aunt has scared me into thinking that nexplanon could contribute to my fertility issues and that it could take into my late 20s or 30s before we have our first. Please help. I’m worried and desperate. 🩵
