Posted: 10-25-05 08:07am

I went to my doctors about two weeks ago and my doctor said that I can have sex whenever I want cause I cant get pregnant because I have irregular periods so I am scared cause my dream was always to be a future mother I am 19 and getting married in 6 months. But if I cant I am not getting married. :cry: :?

I am not sure if you are a believer, but with a little praying and faith in the lord he can make miracles happen. When I was six years old I was raped, my doctor told me I would never be able to have children. I got second opinions and everything. I am now 22 and have a 17 month old. My pregnancy was perfect and my labor went without complications. There have been many cases where doctors tell people they can't get pregnant and then they do. I think you should get a second opinion and find out why you are having irregular periods. Are you on birth control? If you are maybe that is the problem, but if not it could be the same case. Get on birth control for a 6 months or so and it should work itself out. Why wouldn't you get married if you can't get pregnant? If you truely love each other that should be the last thing on your mind. There are ways around getting pregnant-adoption, seragant mothers or fertilty drugs. Good luck and hope to hear from you.

I myself was also raped when I was 6 to 8. And yes I do attend a church and a believer in the lord I think that is how I made it this far. I been trying for about a year now and still no answer. The reason I wouldn't want to get married is because I would want to give him something he most desires and if I cant give him that then what am I good for. I mean I know me as a person is worth it and I know that I have a lot to offer him but still I think that bring a child into the world is a blessing. Sometimes I just feel so worthless and then thats where I look towards the lord. Ooooo.... Congrats having a baby. I know that it must be the most amazing experience in the world I just wish I could experience that

I think you should go to another doctor! Have you checked out your temps. I hear that they work well. Has your fertilty been checked? I wish you well, and I will pray for you myself. Good luck, and please do some researching on your menstrual cycles. Ask lots of questions- and you are worth something, I know there will always be that void if you can't successfully conceive :( somehow you will have to find that something within yourself to strive on. If the man you are going to marry loves you he won't give up on you-no matter if you can bear child or not. :) have faith in the lord and have faith in yourself!

I say this with the upmost respect and love for you as you are my sister in .God's eyes. I know you must love our .Lord dearly and desire to have an answer from .Him. Knowing that your main concern in life is the will of .God, maybe you and your future husband should do a bible study on fornication. I know .He does bless people with children out of wed lock but if the two of you were to get married the issue of letting the love of your life go over infertlity would be out of the question because you would be wed and could face this as man and wife. Maybe this is something that is going to bring the two of you closer then you ever dreamed. I will be praying for you. Remember that when you get down. :)

I would ask for a second opinion. My sister has very irregular periods (3-4 times a year). The doctor didn't say she was infertile, just that would be difficult to get pregnant on her own without medical intervention because she does not ovulate all the time (hence the irregular period).

What do you mean by irregular periods??

Like, you miss some periods or they come whenever they want?

I would go through some months where I would have irregular periods and what I mean by this is that I would get my period maybe twice a month or so for a few months and then it would go back to regular for a while.

While I am on my periods "regularly" I will have it for 7-8 days. I am 3 months pregnant now and even though I have been having bleeding for 2 and a half months it is slowing down alot now. Some days I won't bleed and some days I will just spot. As far as my last ultrasound shows my baby is still growing at a normal rate.
