PCOS Support

Hi to everyone who has written in the last few months (if you still read this thread!)

I have had PCOS for a while now and am just starting with clomid. Or rather will be soon. I am currently on the pill to bring on AF.

If anyone is still checking this and would like to get the thread going, I'm happy to chat!

Hi Ladies,
This is just a little hope for all us girls with PCOS as I too have PCOS and have been TTC for 10months. I was diagnosed 3 months ago with PCOS and stated my first cycle of 50mg Clomid last cycle. I too was on the pill for almost 14yrs and once I came off the pill had a few AF then they stopped soI had to take Provera to bring on AF as I hadnt seen her in 5 months before I could start Clomid. Along with taking clomid I went on a LOW GI diet to help control my PCOS and exercised which helped me loose 5kg. I wasnt extremely overweight but they say just a small amount of weight loss helps restore good ovulation. I thought all was lost this cycle when my DAY 21 progesterone test came back 3.3 which indicated I didnt ovulate, however I started to get symtoms of ovulation prior to and on DAY 23 (cramping & EWCM) so I actually ovulated late on Clomid which happens a fair bit apparently. I got another test done on day 31 (10 days after original) and the result was great 69.9 ! I am now on day 37 and did a HPT yesterday along with a BT and got a on both tests. Dont give up hope girls !

Hi All,

Just wanted to intro myself...
My AF has always been irregular and never thought too much of it. AF comes once every couple of months.

In 2007, DH and I decided to TTC.

I then started having really bad pain on my left ovaries and had an U/S to reveal that I had PCOS. I also had a gestational sac which could have been either a baby (if there was a heart beat present in 6wks time) or a cyst.

Anyway, it turned out to be a baby! DD is currently 14mths.

So yes, there is hope girls =)

Hi Everyone!
I also have PCOS... I have all the classic sympotoms. Just wanted to pop my head in and say there IS hope. I had to loose weight and follow low GI diet and exercise. It took me almost 12months (watching cycles, taking tests etc) to fall pregnant with each of my children but I had just had my 3rd baby boy! I really think it was the weightloss that did it each time though. After I lost about 4kgs each time I fell pg within a few months.
Anyway wishing you all luck!!!
