Hi, I am 26 years old and have a 20 month
old son. I have just been diagnosed with
polycystic ovary syndrome and just
wondered if there are any other ladies
here who have this?
My doctor wasn't hugely helpful and just
told me the only treatment was the
combined pill which I can't take because I
get migraines
have any of you had difficulty conceiving
because of pcos? I'm not ttc at the
moment but would like to in the next 12
months or so and want to get an idea of
what i'm in for!
many thanks.

The pill does help to treat the symptoms
but if you are planning on ttc soon, you
may want to try taking metformin. Did
she do any bloodwork and what were your
results. I am new to the whole pcos
thing too. I was just diagnosed in sep.

I have pcos the doc put me on estrogen and
progesterone to help me out .I didn't have
a period for like 6 months .They told me
it depends on the severity of pcos. Like
on a scale of 1 through 10 . I now
ovulate and get a period regularly with
out any medication.I cant take any birth
control it makes me really sick.
