Young PCOS'ers! ~ 35 BFPs down!! ~

[sugarpi24]

good luck hopeful! hope next weeks results are better for you!

Hubby and i have decided that the cheapest plan is what we are going for...just get a loan or whatever it is through springstone and only have 1 try at IVF....if that doesnt work we will see if we try again...but we just cant spend $18,000 and we get pregnant on the first try ya know...id rather try once for $10,000 and hope for the best. So we will see when we get closer. I just dont want to be pinching pennies when having a kid. We need to get our roof done this next spring too...so i think we will apply for the Springstone thing for IVF and then see if there is anyone around here that takes payments for our roof monthly. Because i dont want to have kids in a house with leaks! But thats whats new with me.

hows everyone else?

I wish you the best of luck with the ivf!! Maybe you will get lots of follies and are able to freeze like 10 or 15. Yay! Sending a ton of follie dust your way!

Hello everyone, I'm happy to have found this thread, looking for some advice, and encouragement, I'm 24 yrs old and was just recently diagnosed with PCOS, luckily my tubes are wide open, and I have no cysts on my ovaries, I have perfect progesterone levels however I have slightly elevated testosterone, I'm wondering if anyone is in the same boat or was and has conceived with elevated testosterone levels, my doctor says I ovulate but I'm assuming this is why I haven't had a bfp yet? It's all so confusing.. Hope someone has some advice for me

Welcome hun

I still don't know much about PCOS, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries last month when we started trying for #2. I'm going to my doctor tomorrow to ask more questions due to another wonky cycle.

There are a lot of great ladies here who could probably answer your question better than me as I'm still new to this. It's so nice having a supportive group of ladies going through the same thing.

Welcome Mandy, I'm 24 too.
I don't know about your particular situation because I have cysts all over my ovaries.. But I did eventually conceive.. So anything is possible! It took a year and 6 months for my first and now going on 10 months with #2
Has your doctor put you on any medications?

Thanks for answering your story deff gives me hope that it can happen! I hope you get your bfp for #2 soon!
My doctor wants us to ttc naturally for a few more months, which I'd rather not have to use medications, but if I don't fall pregnant then she wants to try me on Clomid. I will do what ever I have to, to be a mommy

 

[hopefulfor1st]

Hi Mandy sorry I don't know either, at last check I had 49 cysts. I conceived my little dude on clomid and I'm trying it again for #2 but It doesn't seem to be working as well this time! I'm 28

Sounds like it's getting really close! Are you sure you didn't miss it already?

Nope, me and opks dont get along... I can never be certain of anything when it comes to them.

 

[Bellybump89]

I have issues with them too so I feel your pain :/ like I said that positive was the second one in my whole life. I really think that i had a cyst too because i was feeling pretty uncomfortable.

 

[Bellybump89]

I'm in a lot of pain today. I can barely stand up and walk. I'm 99% sure I had a cyst burst.
I'm so depressed

hey girls havent had a chance to read the whole thread so if noone mines to brief me about ya ttc/pcos journeys

im 25 oh 24 i am not on current meds for my pcos i was taking 2000mg metformin ive tried three r ounds of clomid with no success and i did one round of femera and i gave up my last af was jan of this yr and havent had the slightest hint that shes on her way i have a drs appt on 11/25 to talk about ttc again wth the help of meds the only thing i have been doing is i just started drinking speriment tea whch i heard 2 cups a day is good with pcos but thats pretty much what ive been doing now please keep posted with youu ladies i would love some buddies

 

[hopefulfor1st]

Decided not to go ahead with the 100mg yet.
Last time on 50mg I oved and conceived when I weighed 80kg, now at 85kg I didn't even ov on 50mg.... It must be the weight :/ and I don't wanna waste my clomid rounds and then have to go to injectables :/ so we are going back to ntnp while I work my butt off and pray for an accident along the way!
