Quote From: txgirl18I have PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome ). The doctors that I've been to have told that I may or may not be able to get pregnant. If anyone that is reading this has the same thing and has had children,will you please let me know how I might be able to get pregnant?It's not because I don't try. I've been married for over 4 yrs and we have been trying for almost 5 yrs to get pregnant. I don't have the kind of money it's going to take to go to fertility doctors.I just want to be able to have children,I've always wanted to be a mother. I see these people out there killing their kids and yet I would be a great and loving mother and I can't have them. I want to adopt but I don't have that kind of money that it would take. It makes me depressed sometimes because I want children so bad.
Hello - I have PCOS as well and have been married now 6 1/2 years. I was TTC to concieve for over 6 years, almost 3 years in infertility treatment. Keep positive, trust me (I didn't all the time and it was very difficult at times, I know...especially when everyone around me was getting pregnant). I was in monitoring evry cycle for over 2 years and only ovulated twice in those 2 years due to the PCOS. I maxed out on fertility meds (Clomid, Femara, Dexamethasone) to no avail.
I finally found a fertility specialist here in Canada and he performed Ovarian Cautery and removed Cysts from my ovaries (~25 from each side) and used a laser to put small cuts on my ovaries. 1 month later, I ovulated and had Intrauterine insemination and am now 21 weeks pregnant. I honestly did not think it was possible. Keep looking for the right doctor, meds and even ovarian cautery I believe are not that expensive (Mine were covered by my work medical plan except 200.00). Keep your chin up, I know it is a tough ride!
Also - at the same time I was seeing a naturopath and they have many types of treatments for infertility as well. Good luck!
