Dear Readers,
yesterday morning I went to my dr and it was confirmed that I have poly cystic ovary syndrom (PCOS) and they told me all that we can do is treat your symtoms but theres really no cure and people who have it are usually considered infirtile. So I went home and told my husband and we both cryed together and then talked about where to go from here. We both agreed that we need to make an appt with the kaiser fertility clinic in fontana and so I have an appt with them on the 15. Then from there we are going to have them treat me for my pcos and in that time we are going to look into being foster parents and when we feel the time is right we are going to go back to that clinic and start having them help us concieve a baby of our own.

I hope that you can get some good information when you go to the other clinic. I just wanted to say that I have PCOS and I have been able to successfully conceive, two wonderful boys. For me, the things that seemed to help with conceiving were weightloss, clomid and accupuncture. Every case is different, but I wish you much luck on your TTC journey!

OMG!!! Why on earth would they tell you that????? PCOS in no way makes you infertile!!!!!!!!!!! That is an awful thing to say!! I know 3 ladies who have PCOS and all of them have children. One lady didn't even know about having PCOS until she'd had 2 children without any problems at all. And my best friend has PCOS and has a son.

PCOS is associated with some people having problems with their fertility, but it in no way makes you infertile. I am outraged that that have given you such a negative outlook and have given you such a bleak prospect.

My best friend (who, as I said, has PCOS) tried for 4 years with 'traditional' infertility treatment, had no success, but went to see a naturopath and within 3 months she was ovulating regularly, was losing weight and the following month she was pregnant.

Do not give up. This is not the end of the road. Do some research, find a naturopath who has experience of treating women's health and go and have a consultation.

i know MANY Many women that have pcos and have gotten pg! you can do IUI's - IVF, take clomid...so on......you must go to someone that knows more about it. You have gotten some bad info.....

I am a PCOS sufferer too. I successfully conceived my son Derek after trying a couple of different oral drugs and then switching to injectables.

PCOS is TOTALLY treatable in most women. I'm actually going to try clomid again this month. YOU HAVE OPTIONS!!

Hang in there!
