I'm 5ish weeks pregnant and the more I read about links between PCOS and miscarriage, the more terrified I become. I almost feel like 'why am I even bothering - it seems like it's just a matter of time before it all goes wrong?!'
One thing that's particularly frustrating me is reading that metformin, progesterone (injections) etc can help, but that whenever I've asked my GP about any of this all I get is variants of 'if you miscarry, you miscarry'. I know this! But I feel like if there is something I can take/ do to protect against miscarriage surely I should be allowed to?! Would I have to be referred to a specialist to be prescribed metformin, or is it actually possible for a GP prescribe this?
Finally, as the title says - has anyone with PCOS had a baby completely naturally without any need for medication? It would be really nice to hear a happy story - if indeed one exists!
