Frustrated

[vjpfeif]

Hey ladies. I am 30 years old and recently married. We have been TTC since October (when I stopped taking the pill). I have PCOS and my cycles haven't been the most regular. Last month I had to take progesterone to start AF, started 3/15/11 and then did a cycle of Clomid 50 mg per my Dr. I was tested by my doctor to check my progesterone levels on the 6th of this month and was told that it is likely that I did not ovulate as my level was 0.9. I should have started AF on the 14th of this month according to my doctor but should wait until the 19th and if no AF then test to make sure not pregnant and call the doctor. I did a test on the 15th and it was negative. I'm having major sensitivities to my breasts as well as feel bloated 24/7. Unsure if it AF trying to come? I don't think I could be pregnant as everything I read about ovulation and progesterone levels, my level is just to low. Any advice? I'm going crazy!

well one thing i have discovered is that sore breasts/ nipples happen when there is a rise in progesterone so maby you ovulated after seeing the doctor ??? So i dont know maby you ovulated later or af is coming either way i would say its a good sighn that something is happening whatever it is fingers crossed that somthing happens soon so you can get on with things

Hey chicky, your symptoms could be a sign of hormone imbalance (which is common with PCOS) - next month try taking starflower oil up until ovulation and it should regulate your hormones a little better.

A friend of mine was diagnosed with PCOS and they started her on metformin - she conceived her first cycle on it after trying for 16 months!

Thank you guys for your imput. I forgot to mention that I do take Metformin. I have been on it for probably close to a year for my PCOS.
