Hello ladies I am new to this group and just enrolled fresh today my husband and I have been TTC for 5 years woth no luck anywho here's my current dilemma....

I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 17 (am now 24) but despite having PCOS I've usually had fairly regular periods my average cycle is 33 days give or take a day and is usually between 5-6 day of 3-4 of which are very heavy flows with clots. The last time I had actually bright red blood and a normal flow was 8/19-23/16 then on 9/23-25/16 I had 3 days of on/off dark brown discharge.....since then I've had unusually tender breast, im so bloated my underwear are tighter and my jeans and bottoms in general cause discomfort in my lower abdomen, ive been having hot flashes to the point its 40 degrees and im sweating, ive been super emotional crying over even the silliest commercials, my boobs also have a bunch of tiny red spider veins all around my areola, my cervix has been consistantly high and soft and feels swollen as of the past few days, I've been having on/off light brown discharge thats EW consistancy only when wiping for the past week, my vagina feels tighter/more swollen inside there's no pain, but while having sex with my husband even he noticed it seemed quite a bit tighter than usual and it still does, I've been more fatigued than is usual for me, lower back pains, I get these weird bouts of sharp pains in my boobs that last a few seconds at a time, and these weird twinges in my lower abdomen....I have had negative urine and blood HCG, I had an ultrasound done 2.5 weeks ago and it showed a small cyst on my left ovary, but after due research it could be a corpus luteum cyst....😣😥🤔 I'm am going to a new OBGYN today for a second opinion as my old office was very unorganized and quite frankly rude.
 
Sounds like PCOS at its best! And if it was a corpus luteum cyst that means you ovulated!! That's a good thing! So it could be that your ovulation symptoms are pretty bad if you don't normally ovulate. FX!

I've never had any of these symptoms since getting my period at age 11 I have very mild PCOS, my cycles have only altered on occasions where I've been very very ill to the point of hospitalization. I have this gut feeling that I can't shake, also PCOS couldn't cause a change in vaginal color and swelling could it?
 
I have PCOS and TTC #1 too.

Your symptoms sound a lot like early pregnancy symptoms, but if your tests are coming back negative then you're not pregnant. Unfortunately PCOS can mimic pregnancy symptoms.

Do you ovulate even though your cycles are fairly regular?

Yes I do
 
Those sound like the same symptoms I had last month. It can be frustrating to say the least, especially wgewn your mind starts to wonder and you get that excited feeling. I hope it is a good sign for you :)
 
whats types of fertility treatment have you tried?

I have PCOS and just ovulated after my first round of letrozole.
