Come and cheer me up! PCOS!

[Daisychain12]

So I found out today that I have PCOS. Boo :( Pretty gutted, but i sort of saw it coming after so long with no AF. Im trying to not read too many negative things and focus on the positive steps i can take. If anyone has any success stories, advice for ttc/ managing it, I'd love to hear!

I have PCOS, managed through weight control. I don't eat more than 12-1500 calories most days and keep my weight below 10st (I'm 5'4").

Metformin can help, but you may need to find a sympathetic consultant to prescribe these as they are not supposed to be prescribed for fertility reasons as there hasn't been a great deal of research into the use of Metformin in fertility.

I have a 3yo DD, conceived via 3rd attempt at IVF. Good luck.

I have PCOS. My Clomid twins are asleep upstairs! Do push for a referral to a fertility specialist ASAP. There is not much you can do although temping did make me feel vaguely in control during the long cycles and gave us a window where trying had some sort of point!
