hi, me and my fiance want to try for a baby, so i went to get my coil out and they couldn't find it, so sent me for an ultrasound and the woman doing it said she cant see the coil so i must have fell out, and that she thinks ive got pcos, ive always suspected this from being 15r old, im 23 now and no dr has tested me becasue ive never wanted to try for kids until now, feel really let down by doctors, and even though i expected i ahd pcos its stil bit of a shock to be told i have it, now i know why im so darn hairy! well im seeing dr on fri n guna see what they can do to improve my chances of conceiving, it will be nice to speak to others with similar situation so dont feel so alone. i feel like if i find out ill never have children ill be less of a woman somehow?

i know how you feel. me and my husband have been trying for almost 2 years now and the dr. told me i have pcos. however, its not as bad as they make it seem. My ob/gyn told me many women get pregnant even though they have pcos and i know a woman i work with who has like 3 or 4 children even though she has it also. im on metformin for it and have been through 2 rounds of fertility med and so far nothing. i just found this website and it makes me feel a little better to know there are other women who understand how i feel and why im always so down. I've always wanted children and it makes me feel like if i cant have children ill never be enough for my husband

i also know how you feel, ive had irreguar periods for years, as i have grew up i have noticed that i have exess facial hair and after going to the doctors a few times for it i was never given the option to be tested for PCOS, over the last few months my periods have seemed to stopped. a few days ago i went back to my doctors and they finally refered me to get tested. im just waiting for the anxious results, but reading the symptons i feel that im going to struggle getting pregnant, im 22 at the moment but im meant to be at my most fertile. im extremly worried!!!
