Good evening ladies 😊
I wonder if any of you can offer me any advice or support...
I have been diagnosed with PCOS and have been referred to the fertility clinic. I’ve had an external and internal ulstrasound scan to confirm. At my consultation appointment at the clinic they took my height, bmi, blood tests and swab for chlamydia. DH was sent for SA test. Now waiting to be called back to discuss results and next steps.
In addition to the PCOS I have secondary Amenorrhea (absence of menstrual bleeding in a woman who had been menstruating but later stops menstruating for three or more months in the absence of pregnancy, lactation, contraceptive pills, or menopause). I haven’t had a period since August 2016 (14 months ago) when I stopped BC which I had been on for a decade. I have changed my diet and reduced sugar levels etc. I do get occasional infrequent spotting for a few days but nothing materialises into a full AF. I’ve tried Angus castus, inositol etc.
What I wanted to know is if any one else has gone without a period for this length of time? And if so what treatment was recommended for you by the fertility clinic? I would love to give Clomid a go but I am worried that the clinic may suggest going straight to IVF.
Hoping for some positive vibes!
