Just thought I'd introduce myself on this forum. I have PCOS also. I had a lap + hys + HSG last Monday to check up on everything else (dr thought I might have had endo also, but luckily there was no sign of it).

I have to have another HSG next week as when I had the HSG under anaesthetic the dye didn't pass through one of my tuubes. The dr isn't worried about it, said it was probably just a spasm or because of the anaesthetic, but I can't help worrying. Would I have to have another Lap if my tubes are blocked?

I wondered why he didn't just go in and see if it was blocked right then and there, and clear it up if it was.

The PCOS was diagnosed in March by an internal ultrasound, and confirmed by blood results. I have pretty bad acne on my face (which luckily the pill i helping to clear up) but none of the other PCOS symptoms (weight issues, excess hair growth).

I've just started my third cycle on Brenda-35. My dr has been a little cryptic about how long I need to be on the pill. He gave me three repeats (9 cycles) before the op. but then after the op. he said we could probably start TTC in July/Augst.

Just wondering what is the usual practice. What have been your experiences? I have read in a few posts on here that minimum of three cycles on the pill is usual.

Something I wondered is whether it's more beneficial to be on the pill for more than 3 months. If the longer I am on it, the better my chances of conceiving are when I come off it? Or is it the opposite?
