Hi, this is my first time on here. i was browsing the internet for some information for myself and came across this site so thought i would share my story. i am 26 years old and was diagnosed with pcos when i was 15. it wasnt until i met my partner when i was 19 that i knew i wanted to conceive and went to the dr for a referal. for about 4 years i was at the gyny clinic, taking clomifene, having laproscopy and other treatment they eventually referred me to the acu. where i was then told i had to be over 25 years old to have any fertility treatment on the NHS. i have had 2 cycles of IUI neither of which worked. i am going on for 27 and at the start of my IVF. i am currently having injections every morning and will be due to have my egg retrieval in about 2 weeks. i have been told i will only have 1 embryo and only 1 attempt on NHS. it is so frustrating after nearly 8 years with my partner and ongoing treatment that i am now at my final stage. i feel if this attempt at IVF doesnt work i will never become a mum and cannot see a future with my partner as i dont feel i should keep him from having the family he wants. if only i cold win the lottery, i wouldnt have to worry so much and would pay to have the child i have always diseired and the rest would pay for other people like myself. :)
 
:hugs::hugs: I'm so sorry hun. I completely understand where you are coming from and I know the other ladies on here do also I also have PCOS and I am now on my second round of clomid w/IUI. You are doing everything you can do. It's time to turn it over to God. Just stay positive and know thru him ALL things are possible. I wish you the best and pray that you have a successful IVF.
 
when i first started reading this i thought it was my post from the past... im 26 and been ttc since i was 23.. we have done several iui to no avail because of the pcos..so many times i felt like i was less of a woman b/c of this... then we tried ivf and that didnt work, i ended up using a donor egg and got preg with twins in 2009.. did another ivf, failed and am on another one.. we will know on the 18th... im just sayin its tuff for people like us but hang in there u may want to try donor egg if it still doesnt work- dont rule it out but hopefully this time will work.
 
thanks for your support, its nice to know i am not alone in all this and have support from people that dont know me. with a bit of luck the egg retrieval will go ahead next week and i will feel more like things are happening for me
