An actual chance this time!

[manduh726]

I have PCOS and my cycles are insane and I don't ovulate much on my own. Its been confirmed by a specialist. But this cycle I have lost 40 pounds and actually got a proper period. I even got a positive on an ovulation test before the last period. That never happens for me. This cycle my hubby and I bded the whole week I was suppose to ovulate if I did.

That would put me at 5 dpo and I am having all kinds of symptoms. I know it would be early but this cycle is just different. I have been having dizzy spells, cramps, discharge, smelling things strongly, almost constipation I can go but have to put some effort in going (I eat a ton of fiber and veggies with the diet I am on) and today nausea is hitting me off and on. Oh and yesterday there was tiny spots of blood when I wiped once. Then nothing. I almost thought I was getting a period early but it never did anymore.

I am feeling good about this cycle.

Fingers crossed this is your bfp cycle manduh726! X

I know I am only 7 dpo but I dollar tree tested and it was bfn.

I forgot to mention I have nerve pain in lower back from disc disease and its suddenly flared up. That's unusual. And my sex drive is down. I am also getting cramps off and on.

I hope this is the month. It's been 8 years of trying.

Good luck!

 

[manduh726]

I am debating to test. I would be 8 dpo.

 

[Wobbles]

Good luck

 

[manduh726]

I tested yesterday at 8 dpo with cheap test and bfn. I am trying to hold out till sat for first response test. Its killing me.

 

[Bevziibubble]

Fingers crossed for Saturday

 

[manduh726]

It's been 8 years at this point of trying so I am trying not to work myself up.

 

[manduh726]

I broke down and at 10 dpo with a frer I tested after I got home and bfn. I'll try sunday with my last frer.

Good luck mandur!! Don't count yourself out yet, 10dpo is still early! Have you had many symptoms. Its great that you have managed to lose so much weight and great that you have had a natural period!

I have just been officially diagnosed with PCOS. Suspected it for a long time but went to my GP as I haven't had AF since December. Saw a gynaecologist today who prescribed me norethisterone to induce a period and we will be referred to a fertility clinic. To make matters worse, my husband's SA came back this week to show 0% normal morphology

I feel like I've had a ton of symptoms but after 8 years of trying I dont trust anything anymore. I did the same route as you with the being officially diagnosed and taking meds for a period. I did metformin and clomid with no success. My husband was tested and he is a champ with no detected issues. It's all me and not ovulating.

Thanks about the weight. I joined weight watchers. I figure I am about to be 34 and I need to get serious. I figure I give the natural method with weight loss and few months and then if nothing I'll go back to the doctors.

They only thing about this cycle is I never detected a positive opk. But PCOS can give you false positives.

If you would like to be ttc buddies I would love too! With similar issues we would probably understand each other lol.

 

[sarah34]

Yes definitely I would like that

I'm new to this PCOS thing! What symptoms do you have?

I have slight acne, slight excessive hair on my fair (upper lip and chin has to be waxed every few weeks!) irregular periods and cysts on my ovaries. I am not overweight or insulin resistant as far as I know.

Did you get any side effects of the norethisterone? I am slightly worried about taking it as I do not know where I am in my cycle so could well have ovulated. xx

I will pm you here.

 

[manduh726]

No af yet. But not unusual for PCOS.

 

[sarah34]

Have you tested mandur???

 

[manduh726]

Have you tested mandur???

I did this morning with frer and bfn. I am counting myself out. I will just wait and see when af comes and continue losing weight. If it still causes me issues I guess I will start back with specialists. PCOS sucks and makes tracking and conceiving ten times harder.
