I know what you mean about the emotions you can get from finding out you have PCOS. On the positive side, it is one of the treatable fertility complaints
I was diagnosed with PCOS back in May and advised to start on clomid to get my cycles going, and ovulating. I was the same as you and as soon as i found out i saw a specialist. But I'm only young so I didn’t want to use my last resort yet so i did some research and tried acupuncture. I live in Adelaide too so if you want his details i can give you them. I started having two sessions a week and i went from being 70 days, 60 days and 90 day cycles to 38, 35, 31 etc! AND as a positive i fell pregnant in August. So if you are open to alternative medicine i recommend it highly. It worked for me, and i know it might sound funny but i felt at least i was doing something physically to try and fix it.
Hi coin, I'm another with PCOS. I had my daughter last year through IVF as I was desperate and rushed straight into assisted fertility, I also have severe endo and only one fallopian tube so I had more reasons to rush into IVF. However this year I started seeing a naturopath and four months later I was pregnant again! Naturally!!
There is a lot of hope! I also second acupuncture, it can be amazing! I can't recommend highly enough natural medicine, even if you want to use it as well as your fertility treatment, it can help with success rates! Good luck.
