I was diagnosed with PCOS in April 2005. At this point we were not TTC, but I wanted to get my symptoms under control so started taking Metformin, eating Low GI and exercising lots. This helped me lose 13 kg. I must say my endocrinologist warned me to use protection if I didn't want to fall pregnant, as the metformin would definitely start me ovulating again. After hearing so many stories of women with PCOS I doubted this was true.

In October 2005 we decided we were ready to TTC. Didn't do much other than BD with no protection After the second month of doing this, I started to feel nausea before AF was due. I thought I was making things up until I saw that positive line on the HPT. \/

To be honest, we thought we would have more time to prepare ourselves, as we did not expect it would only take 2 months given my condition. DH is so proud of his swimmers
