TTC with PCOS and Moderate Endo
Hi All,
I am new to this forum site and didn't see any recent threads that I thought were relevant.
My story? I am 25 and my DH is 27 (and perfect, grrr...). We have been trying to conceive for the past 2 years. When I was 13, I started my womanhood with a 6 month heavy period and no-one could tell me what was wrong. Since my marriage (in 2008) I have been diagnosed with PCOS (which explains my round figure... to some degree anyway!) and then at the end of 2009 I was diagnosed with moderate to severe endometriosis. I had a laparoscopy and my tubes were ok, in fact it wasn't really around my uterus at all, instead it affects by bowel and bladder (TMI??) which means it can't be removed at all. Apparently this still affects my fertility and last week I was told to try IUI or IVF. I had been on the IUI drug Clomid before and almost bled to death (I still have niggling anaemia as a result), so I decided to go with IVF. Already on synarel for the endo, I started Gonal f injections yesterday. As a result, I'm kind of swept off my feet and not really sure what is going on. Last night/This morning I started bleeding fairly heavily (enough to be uncomfortable most of the time) and I'm not sure what to do?!?!?! I'm really afraid I'm going to have the same reaction as the clomid and I'm scared to leave my house.
I guess I really wanted to share my story to see if any one else is in a similar situation, scared to death, but doesn't want to put a toe out of line in case it affects my chances of conception. :o
