I finished my first round of clomid yesterday. I go on Monday for my 2 hour glucose test and some other labs to check my hormones after taking the clomid. Its just a waiting game for a couple weeks. I didn't think I should have went to the doctor when I did because i knew people had said it can take a long time to get your period back after stopping the pill, but I am nurse and was talking to one of the doctors at work and she suggested I make an appointment...Just to make sure everything is ok...Then I got that diagnosis, so I am glad I didn't wait much longer...I am hoping the clomid will work, I didn't have any real side effects from it...decreased appetite but thats about it...Crossing my fingers that I will be lucky with just one round

That is great to know that there is company's out there who will help financially. I am nervous about that too. I have ok insurance but I know they do not cover anything with infertility stuff. I really like my OB/Gyn..I know her because of working in the hospital, so I feel like i should at least give this a chance, I know you suggested seeing a specialist, but I think I will see after this month with all of the blood tests that I will be getting done (FSH, Glucose and Progesterone) and take the clomid and see what happens. I will keep you posted!! Once again thank you!! I get excited when I see you have replied to me

Thanks for responding to me and helping me through this. I agree it feels great to know that I can "talk" to someone about all of my questions who has been through it. My mom and mother in law just say don't worry it will all be ok, but they have never had any problems, so its nice to know I have you!! Thanks again.View Thread


I have another question. Can I only get pregnant with fertility medications? and do we have a higher chance of miscarriages with PCOS? I have so many thoughts and concerns.View Thread


I am 26 and was married in November. Stopped taking Birth control in November and have not had a period since. I figured this was normal after being on birth control for 8 years. I did make an appointment about 2 months ago with OB/Gyne. She did some blood work to check my thyroid and hormone level and it all came back normal. She did prescribe Provera. I took that and nothing happpend. Went back to doctor a week ago and she gave me another round of Provera (still waiting on period stopped taking on tues) and did an U/S. My doctor called me yesterday and told me that it showed I had PCOS...I feel like a have A MILLION questions. I am an RN so i feel like i should know this stuff but I have no idea. I have no current health problems and am not overweight. I am confused by this diagnosis because it seems like all the research I have done it says to lose weight and take care of your BP issues or keep your blood sugars more normal if diabteic...Well I have none of this probelms and looking for some help!! I am very Anxious, scared, nervous, etc...We really wanted to start trying for a baby but it has been very difficult with no periods. I think I am just looking for some reassurance or help from you guys on where to go from here...I have clomid that she wanted me to try if I start my period this month, i was going to do it for one month with blood draws throughout to make sure my body is ovulating...I feel very discouraged right now...Any advice is welcome!! thank youView Thread
