Good Luck

im sorry to hear that...it sucks

do you know why they have taken so long in getting you started on it? are they running other tests first? i think they normally want to understand why you are not ovulating before they will do anything about it..and i was diagnosed with pcos about 8 months now...so no need to do anymore tests.

i hope you get to start it soon! x

That stinks!!! I guess it's all up to the discretion of the doctor? I received mine on my first appt but it was in my file that we had been trying. Good luck with getting it this month!!!

Day 1 of Provera for me today. So far no side effects

Got my AMH test results today - apparently I have a really high egg count number - anyone else had this too? Apparently it's fairly common for PCOSers.

NLK how is the clomid going?

twinklebub · Apr 16th, 2012, 06:34 AM

Well i am back from my first fs appointment - was real.y happy with the doctor I got. Have been put on metformin and am doing a tracking cycle to see if am ovulating if not I will be given clomid to get things going.

She said everything is looking really good and my gp was wrong to tell me I have pcos as I quite clearly don't have it. So I guess time will tell.

nlk · Apr 16th, 2012, 08:00 AM

matilda - glad you dont have any side effects...i always seemed to feel awful on provera....hot flashes, felt sick...everything! hope it stays that way for you!! im not too sure on the egg count...but thats a good thing i assume? ive never had mine checked, so will assume all is ok until otherwise

my clomid is going ok, have finished the course but had NO side effects at all, so not really holding out much hope that its worked...i know that not everyone gets side effects, but still. i have my scan in the morning to see whether it has done anything though, so will update you on that tomorrow!

twinklebub - im so glad your appointment went well. good luck with the metformin! sucks about being told so many different things though...out of interest, why did your gp decide that you did have pcos, and how has she said you dont? very strange. surely its going to be obvious whether or not you do, because of the tests...i assume that they did tests?? bizarre! happy youre getting sorted, though!

nlk · Apr 17th, 2012, 02:31 AM

just to let you all know, clomid worked, and i actually o'ed! time to get busy!

Matilda85 · Apr 17th, 2012, 07:24 AM

Oh I am so excited for you that you ovulated

FXed you get the egg !

My gp said that my testosterone was high but the ultra sound showd no evidence of it so it had to be pcos, when the fs said I don't I questioned it and she said there's nothing on my overiers and that the testerone level is normal but my free testosterone one level is ment to be high was low and the other was the opposite and apparently it's cause I need to loose some weight not because of pcos. Have just started our for cycle of TIC so very exciting
