PCOS Club!

Forums New posts
Morning

I used OPKs and im glad i did, bought a FR pack of 20 for £30!!! But as you can see from my chart (link in signature) my body tried to ovulate and didnt but then did again and i confirmed this with OPK and temp changes. Mine tend to be fairly visible two lines all the time but just before i ovulate they are really dark ... see below for a positive one that tails off in the afternoon.

Wow, this thread should be called the Monica's with PCOS Club!! Wonder whether women with PCOS have a predisposition to being superorganised?? Im a virgo too so I stood no chance!!!!

Maria, good luck for your OD, you will be fine chick and its one more step towards your :baby:.

Hi Teresa, sorry i have never had Gondatropin Shots, why not search for that on BnB and im positive you'll find a thread about it with loads of ladies with good stories about it. Good luck xx

Well I've finally been to the doctors for blood tests and she also refered me for a scan abdominal and transvaginal I had these yesterday. I was told that my womb, uterus, tubes and right ovary are all fine, but I have a little cyst on my left ovary.

My doctor told me after I had the scan to make an appointment for a weeks time do discuss the blood tests and the scan results. The radiographer said that I would no doubt be sent to a gynaecologist as she couldn't be sure if it would be the cyst that is causing/caused me to have extremely irregular periods for years and years.

My questions are to those that have had similar what's likely to happen next? will I still be able to have a baby? will I have to have cyst removed? what will the gynaecologist do differently to the doctor? will I be put on any medication?

sorry for all the questions, but hope someone can share some advice?
 
Hi

Of course you will be ok, they might not remove the cyst if it is not doing any harm and your other ovary and tube are fine, they may put you on clomid to boost ovulation or something similar. Or if certain hormone levels are low then they can give you tablets or injections. For every problem there will be a solution so keep your chin up and stay positive and in the meantime :sex: just in case!!!!

If your GP offers a referral to a gyne or fertility specialist then say yes straight away as there are usually waiting lists. Hopefully your GP will at least be able to put your mind at rest.

Good luck, you are another step further towards your :baby: now xxxx
 
Hey Monica, great lines there! I'm like you, I only know that I Od when I use opks and check the temp, if I don't, I wouldn't really know... O is a gift that comes when it wants!!

I'm a Leo but on the virgo cast, try to be super organised with O, my dh says i'm bit OCD too but i don't think so:winkwink:

Baby 2010: the docs call them cysts but they are actually follicles, everyone has them, if you PCOS they tend to be bigger and have irregular cycles and these sometimes affects your hormones.

There lots of ppl with PCOS who went to have healthy babies, some take clomid some go the natural way! Wait to see you gynae, she/he will tell what's right for you, try and not to worry to much
 
Hi Sunny

We are only 2 days apart, do you have a good feeling about this cycle??

Husband says i have OCD too!!!!

xxx
 
Not sure, let's say I did my best! it is my second cycle after a mc, they say it takes a bit for the body to go back to normal so hopefully is now back in shape! How about you? any good feelings?

BTW just to add few things: i'm also Monica but in here I'm sunny and I'm 32 too:winkwink:

Good luck with your appointment! How are you feeling about everything? The day I was told, even though we pretty much knew it was pcos, I still had a bit if a breakdown at work ( one of my bosses is an angel mummy and so supportive about this sort of stuff)
 
Jennievictoria welcome what's your story so far?

Well I'm on day three if provera then clomid, looking forward to starting it! Oh SA was low so I gave bought him wellman conception to help with the count less smoking and no hot baths so fingers crossed this will help!

Wifey - you have been through so much I wish you the best of luck with the second test when is it?

I felt gutted....but in a way kinda glad i know why i haven't conceived in 8 years, if thats what has stopped us!!! The thing is I'm sure i Ov, I get cm, as you normally would, plus i get ov pain too, its all new to me.. and have alot to learn...

I did have a 2 scans a few yrs bk which said i had a few cyst on my left ovary, but nothing came of it, all my bloods came back normal, i've never been over weight, and my cycle is regular. This time round my scan showed i have soooo many cyst,( on both ovaries) my bloods suggested Pcos, my cycle is still regular, apart from this month turned out 6 days l8t for AF, I'm still not over weight. I'm gutted, confused, and really want another baby i'm just hoping the FS really can help us..

How do you feel? what symptoms did you have/do have?:hugs:
 
Hi

Welcome jennievictoria, any questions just ask and we will do our best to help! Don't worry though you will be fine chick.

I think PCOS affects people in so many different ways, I'm not overweight either but have bad skin and long cycles, clomid and opks and temping are helping loads to shorten my cycles and tell me when I'm ovulating!

Sunny, my name is Cloey, people call me Monica from friends cos I'm so super organised! Hee hee!

Right off to bed in a mo, I'll reply properly when I'm not on my phone

Xxx
 
Hey jennyvictoria welcome :) you've came to the right place alot of girls understand because they are all going through similar experiences.

Clo_mid - You should start a new thread naming it afrter u lol Thanks for the pics looks like they work for alot of you then - sounds good to me!! They were pretty clear aswell. How long from you get a positive is it that you ovulate?

Kazzab25 - Sorry about the SA result! good about the wellbeing, i heard someone saying about their DH starting them also fertilaid for men and the result was a massive jump. What is happening next with you's? Yes there's been quite alot going on that our recent problems doesn't suprise me just another hurdle to get over ... but hey ho! Just can't wait to get answers!! My DH next appointments 22nd of this month but won't get the result until a week after.. more waiting ..... grr

I've looked at you tube theres a couple of stories on there i found interesting i'll try find them and post them on here of a couple girls stories.

Lea1984 its understandable how you are feelings i felt exactly the same when i found out. I still don't feel any better but I've gotten used to the idea. I know we will get what we want ( BFP ) it will just take that little bit more time and effort and emotional rollercoaster but it only makes you stronger. BIG HUGS XX
 
Hi All

Wifey - they say that the OPK detects the LH surge which tells the follicle to release the egg and that happens within 12-36 hours of the LH surge. Trouble is you could get the start of the surge and then not ovulate for about 2 days or you could detect the end of your surge and then ovulate within 12 hours ..... thats why I started doing two a day, sometimes even three!! I have usually ovulated the day after the surge and my temps have confirmed that.

Good luck with them, as you can see i write on them and photograph them as its all relative its good to compare them over time!

Ha ha, i did think about starting a Monica thread but i subscribe to so many that i think i am starting to lose track!!

Good luck PCOS ladies, we WILL beat it!! xxxx
 
Wifey- good luck with the app make sure you let us no how u get on may well have just been that your oh wasn't well.

Next steps for us are clomid to try and get me ov and retest oh sperms next month. Sperms regen in six month cycles so maybe we caught it at the end of a cycle. That combined with a lifestyle change I'm hoping will help. Im onday four of provera so I'm getting excited about clomid now. I also was meant to be having a laproscopy to check my insides but they cancelled it due to oh so I called up fri and asked if I could still have it just to rule anything else out with me :(
 
Aww thank you for being so wellcoming :) well I was diagnisef with pcos when i was 16 I suffer from sever facial hair which is now so much better thanks to laser . I also suffer with my weight my bmi is overweight borderline obese despite having a small appetite :( I also don't have periods been ttc over a year :(
