Hi
I finally got my PCOS diagnosis on Tuesday. The consultant told me I have the syndrome, that I'll need help to get pregnant, I need to lose weight, then gave me metformin and started talking about how the IVF clinic won't treat me unless I lose weight. Then she started talking about needing a HGC (?) scan - injecting dye to check my tubes - and another ultrasound. Then back to her to 'make a plan.'
Although I'm so happy to have a diagnosis and some progress, I wasn't expecting to discuss IVF at the first appointment. FFS it threw me so much I'm sure I've missed some info.
So I started metformin yesterday (500mg daily to be built up to 1500mg) and have cramps today. Is that normal? And can someone please tell what the frig happens next?
(For the basic info, I'm 28 (vv nearly 29) been with DH for 11 years, no children, ttc since May last year and feeling low about everything taking ages and 4 of my friends having babies in the last few months).
