Can someone tell me is it possiable to
develope, find out u have pcos after
having a child? I have all the symptoms
of pcos but I have already had a baby,
about 3 years ago... We are activly
trying for a new baby and getting no where
due to irregular periods. I dont have
money for fertility drugs and am thinking
I have pcos. My question is how do I tell
my dr this is what I think I have if hes
never said anything related to pcos before
when I went in with the same symptoms as
pcos?

All ins comps pay for fert. Testing...Not
treatments. Just tell your dr you want
to start fert. Testing and the best way
to find out is to have a vaginal
ultrasound. Thats how they comfirmed my
pcos after having 3 reg. U's and a cat
scan.

Diagnosis of Pcos And Endemetreosis Posted: 09-18-06 19:47pm
Hi there I know alot about this as I
myself had the op on the 27th july this
year, there is now a procedure to diagnose
the above,its called a laparaoscopy, the
procedure lasts about 45 mins start to
finish they make 2 incisions one inside ur
belly button and one by ur bikini line,
they then fill u up with gas to seperate
the organs so its easier for them to move
the cam about, they then go in and have a
look they can treat cysts and adheasions
caused by edmetreosis with lasers, when u
wake up u will have pain in ur shoulder
for a few days this is the exsess gas they
didnt remove(typical) but it is basically
pain free I was out the same day,good news
to ur doctor can refer you to the gynea
department at ur hospital free of charge
especially if u are suffering with pain,
go to ur doctor hun and good luck xxxx

Pcos Posted: 09-18-06 20:40pm
Well, I had 3 children years before
getting a diagnosis of pcos!! I was
surprised when I got the diagnosis because
we thought I had cushings. Your hormones
tend to be "off" and having more
testosterone. Weight gain around the
middle portion of your body, abnormal hair
growth, diabetes...These are some of the
symptoms. Do a search on google and I am
sure you will find out more about it. I
take metformin for my diabetes as well as
my pcos. Good luck!
