    Hi Collinsgirl,

    Sounds promising. If you are not on any luteal support meds like pregnyl then I would do a POAS now. When I had iui they told me I could test 14 days after AI. Unfortunately I didn't make it that far before AF arrived. So I would test if I was you. Usually they tell you to do a blood test the day after expected AF. I still had to do a blood test even though AF had arrived and had a negative POAS.

    If you had pregnyl or some other HCG drug during the two week wait then I would probably wait a few more days before testing.

    I have heard that clomid is better for pcos then puregon which is why you may be on it. I was on 5 cycles of clomid before I did one with puregon and I don't have pcos.

    Can't help you with the cyst query though.

    Good Luck

    Hi colinsgirl

    I would say you would be fine to POAS now because its past you af due date. i have PCOS as well. The cysts that you get with PCOS are small and they are formed because follicles do not grow big enough and the eggs do not mature. Also they dont break down, like with ppl that dont have PCOS, because of your hormones doing funny stuff. So it would be highly unlikely that they are cysts. Plus im pretty sure that the FS would b able to tell on the US if they wernt follicles. Anyway good luck and i hope your one of the lucky ones that gets it first go!

    sonyalouise - good luck with the IVF. I think i have decided that we will plan to do IVF in October. Im currrently seeing an accupuncturist/ chinese doctor and she said to plan for October but she is pretty positive we will fall naturally before then. god i hope she is right. Its so hard to believe in natural ways when youve been trying for so long and a FS say you have to do IVF but im still thinking positively!

    All of the other lovely ladies in here hope everything is going well and we get some BFP soon! good luck to everyone!
