FROP says Yes AND I have PCOS! *Very Hopeful!....and new!*

[MrsNoMohren]

Hello! I'm new to B&B. I've creeped around a bit as my DH and I have been TTC for 2 months now. I have both stage III endo and PCOS and 2 months ago I decided to have my mirena removed (it was causing me terrible side effects) and my GP advised me that TTC was probably the best next step choice for me both life and health wise. Being only in our mid-20's and the only one of our friends who are married it seems so weird skipping NTNP and going straight to TTC but we were told the longer it takes to get a BFP the worse my health can get..both making me sicker and putting a baby farther in the distance. So basically what I'm trying to say is I don't have anyone to talk about this to. When I bring up TTC to friends or my (DH does to his friends) even just in slight mention and definitely not TMI everyone just tenses up. Most of our friends are like Van Wilder and they act like we're some Little House on the Prairie folk for wanting a baby at 25 .

I'll also probably be posting a lot about my SIL. She has been super nosey into my health since I got engaged to DH and harassed me about TTC even on my wedding day!! She was the first I told when we started trying and 2 weeks later she announced her second "accidental" preganancy even though all she can talk about is how unfair it is that my husband and I are financially sound and how poor DH's bro and she is. I have discovered her to be one of those truly toxically jealous people you have in your life and she has zeroed in on the one thing she has over me is a clean reproductive bill of health- ugh! Every time we see her all she can talk about is how shes pregnant (not the baby, mind you, but HER conceiving and carrying a baby)

So I finalI ly decided to join today as I got my first YES! on a FROP!!! This is huge for me bc even getting a a positive on one of those is very difficult for PCOS ladies. DH and I have been doing the BD every other day this month and today is an "ON" day. I'm just wondering if this is the day we should do it? (Keep in mind we didnt do it yesterday) I really feel the urge but I want that BFP test so bad I dont want to risk messing things up !!!

Hey, welcome to BnB :wave: you will love it here, it has helped me thought my TTC journey for sure!!, i was just diagnosed with PCOS last month, and im now seeing a fertility specialist, me and DH are aswell both financially stable, and have been TTC for 9 months now, so im hoping now that we are seeing a FS things will come along now for us!. seeing as you have endo and PCOS is your GP refering you or are you on and meds?
anyways i hope you get you sooner rather than later good luck!

I've had 3 laps and have been on about every medicine known to treat endo and pcos too. I've had endo for quite some time and I was diagnosed last year with PCOS. I'm currently on metformin but my dr. hasnt perscribed clomid yet bc she thinks it might put too much pressure on me plus she had little faith in ovulating before six months post-mirena (yay! i am and its only 2!!) so HOPEFULLY I wont need to go there but we'll see. I've been to numerous specialists and this GP is who I like more than anyone. Thanks for the warm welcome and best of luck to you with ttc and your pcos. If you ever need to commiserate- you know where I am
