Morning ladies,

I am still so confused by the whole PCOS thing. So when I was diagnosed about 2 ½ years ago, my sister (who is 3 years older then me & a paramedic) started researching and found out that she had a 50% chance of also having it. Naturally she went and had an internal ultrasound and was also diagnosed. Whilst she was not at the time TTC (she only got married this April and is now TTC) she was still able to go through everything I have, Naturopath, Gyno, FS, Clomid & Lap, so that now that she is starting to try she doesn’t have to start from the beginning. PS: She has been off the pill for 2 years and has done all things mentioned and still the only way she can get a period is to go back on the pill for a few weeks and then stop it again. Provera didn’t even work. Poor love.

So I am rather confused, I have never found anyone yet who had a sister with the same condition (PCOS) yet all I seem to read it that it’s genetic. Whilst we cannot trace it backwards in our family we both have it. Anyone’s else’s opinions would be greatly appreciated.

MissKris, you’re funny, hope the positive affirmations help you out, awesome idea I love it.

Pumpgirl, glad to hear. Yes hopefully you will be UTD in no time.

Rhi, lol couldn’t agree more about using too much preseed, I found if we used too much (like what they say on the pack) we would both loose a lot of the sensation, sorry for TMI.

Clamagee, yey, nice to see you back again, I was secretly hoping that you were UTD but good luck for this month hun. Go for it, enjoy your holiday you deserve it. I say drink what you want, it helps to relax. The weekend before I found out I was UTD I was out touring wineries with some friends and DH in the Yarra Valley. Cos there’s no blood cross within the first 2 weeks after conception it actually doesn’t matter what you put in your mouth, so long as you stop once you’re past the 2 week mark. Hope you have a wonderful time in the sun, I’m super jealous.
