Answer 1

I have a son who is 17 months old.  My husband and I were pregnant right away with him.  Now that we are trying for #2, I noticed I had symptoms leading me to believe I had PCOS.  I had some bloodwork done, and it seems as though I do have it.  Just because you have the disease, it does not mean you will never have children.  I am right now in the process of working with a doctor who specializes in fertility, and I just started taking Metformin.

Take a deep breath and relax.  There is so much help out there when it comes to having a baby.  Find the right doctor for you, and he/she will point you in the right direction.

Here is a easy to understand summary of PCOS:

There are many medical journal references if you want to print it and take it to your doctor.

I uploaded a 5 minute mp3 from the radio show he had for 25 years explaining PCOS:

Answer 3

First off try to relax a little bit. Go and get the bloodwork done to see if you have it that way u can eliminate that unknown factor. If you do have it then yuo will just need to go to a fertility doctor and they will evaluate u and go from there. Try not to get to over whelemed and know that alot of women that do have PCOS DO get pregnant they just need a little help. My partner and I have been trying to get pregnant for about 5 months. I have ovarian cysts but haven been disgnosed with PCOS. My doctor said the cysts will have no effect on my chances of getting pregnant. Good luck to you.
