Hello all,
Need to rant!
A little about me... Im 25, Been on the pill for 10 years, came off 9 months ago to let my body get back to normal. Been TTC only for a couple of months. My cycle has been all over the place the last few months i.e. 32 days to 49 days. Ive been doing OPK last few months, some months i'll get a positive, others i won't. Been temping for last couple of months, noticed a rise one month (but 7 days prior to my period) and nothing the next month.
Ive had a few trips to the GP to see whats going on. Blood tests showed abnormal FSH/LH ratio (despite Dr telling me i'm not overweight so i couldn't possibly have pcos). Had an ultrasound scan (external and internal). Got the results today, showing various cysts and diagnosing PCOS.
Dr said, try and relax, Dr said they couldn't prescribe anything in primary care to help and couldn't refer to gynae until i'd been trying for a year, but age is on my side. I should go away for a year and return if nothings happened.
Now i know i do have age on my side (and i understand lots of ladies are struggling who are much older than me so don't want to offend) but to say "try to relax and come back in a year" as if it was as easy as that! I'm one of those people who's always wanted children, and i've tried my best to get into a good situation before considering children (marraige, mortgage, good job etc) and i just feel so ready now. Just left feeling negative, and i know that stressing and sulking won't help the situation at all. ARRRRR!
Phew, that feels a bit better! Anyone had similar experiences, any tips ladies?
Thanks for listening xxx
