Hi all,
I was recently diagnosed with PCOS despite none of the usual signs and symptoms. I'm due to start Letrozole when AF arrives next week (fingers crossed) and am taking 5mg of Folic Acid as well as daily doses of Inofolic.
I've tried to come to terms with all of this and felt close to breaking point a few times. Thankfully I had a two week break from work scheduled which helped significantly. I went walking and thought it all over.
I can't shake the sense of doom within me that my path to a child is not going to be easy and keep thinking I'm going to fail. To add to this, my mum rang the other night to inform me that my younger sister is 8 weeks pregnant. It really knocked me back to square one.
I know there's so many posts on here about Letrozole but I did want to ask if anybody had success with it as I feel like I need some positivity.
Also, how to deal with constant questions about losing weight. I know I'm overweight but I don't find it helpful that people assume losing weight is the silver bullet in this scenario. It also adds to my feelings of failure-like I deserve this for abusing my body.
Thank you to all who read and take any time to reply. It all really helps.
