Hi all
I hope I am posting this in the right place. I'm a little confused and wondering if anyone else has been in my situation. DH and I have been TTC-ing for 5 months. I'm 34.
I had laparoscopic surgery for endo two years ago. Symptoms are coming back so was referred to a specialist and had an ultrasound followed by MRI. They now think I have PCOS in the right ovary. My cycles are getting longer - the last were 33, 34, 35 days - and I have been spotting a little bit a few days before ovulation. Oh, and I'm losing my hair (how attractive), and seem to be losing weight (I'm already quite small).
They are now going to do days 2 and 21 blood tests to check the hormone levels, and a hysteroscopy to have a wee look inside.
Only thing is, I don't know where this is all leading. We've been TTc-ing for less than six months, so this investigation seems a bit serious, especially as it's all on the NHS.
Would it be normal for these investigations to be taking place now? What can I expect to happen in terms of treatment etc, assuming something's the latter? And what are they actually looking for with the hysteroscope?!
so many questions....thanks for reading! And fingers crossed for us all!
