Hi Sue, Natty, Polygirl and Natty
Sue: Yes I will try not to stress. I am getting blood test results tomorrow. I really can't sleep without this blood test to confirm. I have heard blood test is a way to know how many weeks I really am besides the 8th week ultrasound in 2 weeks time. Thanks for the advice. I probably just see my OB if it will help me better and safer as long as my pregnancy is all good and the baby is normal and healthy, that's all it matters. Is it normal to feel I am getting my period and some like period pains, getting white discharge which I do get this 2-3days before my period? Do you think or have you tried having sex while you're pregnant for few weeks only if you don't mind me asking? Cos im worried if it's safe.
Natty: Good luck on your clomid, hope you'll be successful too like me with 50mg [full tablet]. I really feel blessed and lucky with first round of 50mg but I had 3 rounds of 25mg initially. I did all those tests too before putting me into Clomid making sure there's nothing blocked fallopian tube or not good uterus but thankfully they're all good. I have also heard that taking pills for a long term isn't healthy so I stopped my pills after 3 years I think and had my normal period after that. Yeah don't you hate when people ask "nothing yet..", it just putting you into more pressure right plus you feel bad because you know your husband want a baby already, that's normal. That happened to me but these past few days and before I found out I am positive we didn't think about it that much already especially my husband but I keep praying to God hoping and hoping for our dream will come true so don't lose hope and don't forget to pray.
This is really hard to share with your family and friends that's why I prefer forums as well and luckily there's Sue who has been helping me since I started this forum. She's very helpful. And I can also help you as much as I can but of course I don't have much experience yet as Sue does :)
Regarding the Hycosy - Yes I have done hycosy, one of my test. Hycosy is to check if your tubes are blocked or scarred which you get normally with abortion, and they check pelvic and uterus. I had pelvic ultrasound first as my step 1 actually where they found polycystic cysts. I've done my hycosy [full bladder] right after my period I think day 7-8, and nope not painful, a bit uncomfortable because they sticking something into your vagina :D but it's alright. The doctor who did hycosy test [forgot what its called hehe] was nice and she even said that most of her patients do hycosy fall pregnant after a month because it cleans the fallopian tubes but i wasnt one of them up to now. who knows you might be one of them so dont lose hope ok :) i was so relieve when she said that. If you need to ask anything, just ask away.
Polygirl: Clomid is proven a lot of people have a success on this including me, maybe depends on your situation too. For me, first time I had the constipation this month and lots of gas/wind which I thought it must be just the clomid effect PLUS i had a fever/flu this month too where I suspected something wrong but at the same time, it's getting into winter so it's normal for me to get sick but never have fever. But besides all these, main thing is I just keep on praying and wishing and hoping for a miracle. I have sore boobs now. I always get this 2 weeks before my period comes which I had this already and now sore again with some kinda sharp pains like a period pain on and off.
Feel confused and alone :(
Hey im 18 years olds and only just registered to this site. I got giagnosed with pcos about 6 or 7 months ago when i came of the pill to start a family with my partner. I had a regular period straight away but they soon stopped after a couple of months.
I went to see my gp and he said it was normal and things could take up to a year to get back to normal, so i waited and still no period. When i strated to get worried that something was wrong i went back to see my gp and hye told my they needed to carry a few blood test. When my results came back they were all normal, i then had a set of testosterone test and they came back high. He then booked me in to have a scan at my local hospital and that day they reviled that i had Polycystic ovary syndrome. When i left the hospital i didnt know what it ment or what the condition consitsed of and i felt alone and confused. On a later date a returned back to my gp he explaied what the condition was and told me i could never have children, i was 18 and felt like my whole world was ripped apart in the space of 5mins. I was refrered to a gyno at a different hospital who was very helpfull and explained things to my much clearer. On my 1st appointment i was put on 500mg of metformin and i had to increase the dose through 3months. Within the 1st month i had my period and the following months after. I then went back to meet my gyno and he was happy with how thing were going and intoduced me to 50ml of clomid. I have to still carry on with taking 3 metformin tablets aday and If things go well then i am due to start my 1st lot on the 17th of this month. I have to take 5 pills on the 2nd day of my period for the next 3months.
Has any one else on here been giagnosed with pcos around the same age as me and was able to concieve? None of my friends understand what im going through and its so hard for me to be happy for my friends when tell me they have fallen pregnent becuase i wish it was me.
