Aged 31...7 months TTC, hormonal concerns

[Harbourmoon]

Been TTC for 7 months, so far nothing. I know they advise wait until a year but I have other hormonal concerns too and it feels like everyone around me is getting pregnant so easily.

My best friend just told me yesterday she is pregnant, it was a surprise as she wasn't even trying. Whilst I am so happy for her, getting that news has really rocked me. I feel quite hopeless and like it will never happen for me.

I have a GP appt this week to discuss possible PCOS, as I have a high amount of follicles on my right ovary. My periods are regular but have been changed lately from extremely heavy and painful, to light, slow and painful. Part of me worries I'm experiencing perimenopause.

Sorry a bit of a rant, I am just feeling a bit out of hope and worlds apart from my friends I know lately

Just wanted to reach out and say you aren’t alone 🩷 I’m 30 TTC my first for 9 months nearly and just being diagnosed with PCOS!

hope you can get some answers from your gp x

Thank you for reaching out, means a lot. Did the GP give you any support for your PCOS while you're TTC? hope it all works out for you x

im lucky that my gp has been super helpful - I was only diagnosed a couple of weeks ago but I’m having some more bloods done then she is going to refer us to fertility - my period has disappeared completely so I’m on meds to induce that first! Currently 16 weeks without 🤣

defiantly push your gp for hormonal blood tests when you see them! X
