well i had my private appointment tonight and its all bad news!
I went in and he was lovely [he would bloody need to be at £120 for 15 minutes!!!!!!this is the second gynae doc ive seen as my other guys is retiring]. and he took my history etc and he done a pelvic scan, my ovarys were plastered in cysts. He confirmed i have polycystic ovarys. He also told me the results of my last blood test and confirmed im not ov and he also told me i have a very high pro-lactin level
He is starting me on Metformin from the end of next week and will decide wither to put me on clomid aswell in the next fortnight when he knows for sure i didnt ov for three months in a row. He also wants a sperm test done for Gary and he done swabs for infections etc [sorry tmi] but said as i had a baby already i should be fine.
Anyway the long and short of it is i am officially buggered but at least they are doing something about it and im looking forward to starting Metformin as it can also help to lose weight!!! [ a nice side effect!]

It's such a shite feeling, isn't it? I had a similar experience last week but, like you say, at least it has been found and something is being done. Xxx

sorry to hear you've got probs, but at least something can and is now being done. Fingers crossed this kicks your ovaries into ovulation and you get a BFP!! (PS metformin can also give you the runs at first! - just to warn you, it's usually used for diabetes and I work with lots of people with it!) xx

SOrry ot hear you got bad news, but hopefully the metformin will do the job abd you will get your BFP soon!

Hun I know ive told you this before via email but I have servere pcos and am pg with number 3 xx there is always hope chick x

Sorry to hear that Diane, on a plus note it's good that they are going to do something to help you & will keep everything crossed that it does the trick & well be reading a bfp post soon.

Lots of hugs xxx

Thank you all for your lovely words, SIL i know you have pcos and im so pleased your pregnant again [how are you??????] you give me hope that i can be too!!! i just hope the metformin starts to work soon so i can get my bfp, ive waited long enough for it! LOL xxxxxxxxxxx

Im good thanks diane. Had a scan in the week and everythings fine withmy bubbs :) TG Still no symptoms though !

The metformin was a godsend for regulating my insulin levels and I did loose some weight but sadly had to stop taking it as I have low blood pressure and it was making it even lower x

Hey Diane i'm so sorry you got bad news but as everyone else is saying, at least you know whats going on and there is something they can do, i know the next bit is easier said than done but it will just take a little time and you will have your bean sending you lots of (((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))

Thanks Twinkle!!!!
SIL im glad all is going well for you, how many weeks are you now? i cant believe you have no symptoms!!!!! lucky you!!!!! how do the other kids feel about it or are you leaving it to later to tell them? xxxx

Hi Diane,

I'm sorry to hear you got bad news and are feeling so down about it all but on a positive note at least now you know where you stand and the doctors are hopeful of rectifying and before long you will be on your way to you BFP.
You will get there soon, I know it! whilst losing a little weight along the way too!

hi hon, my best mate was told she would never have children due to severe pcos and also starting early menopause at 23 but she insisted on the metaformin and her son is due in 8 weeks.

Hiya - Im so sorry youve been told you have pcos. I didnt have pcos but I had very high prolactin which I took tablets for to reduce the levels as it stopped me ovulating. 5 months after taking the tablets I got my BFP - so it can be done and hopefully the treatment youre being given should mean its not too long before you get your BFP.

Wishing you every luck getting your BFP

Zoey i have no money left on my phone [as usual!!!] but i will get more on and text you back after i start work at 8. xxxxxxx

Hi Diane,

Didnt want to pull my post back up, but just wanted to say a big thank you for your msg hun, it really meant alot, as did everyones. When that dreaded date comes round for you hun im here for you too & will send you lots of big cyber hugs, well def have our sticky bfp by the end of this year, (fingers crossed earlier) xxxx

Hun i really hope so! i think we deserve it after the last year we have had! i just hope we dont have to wait too long for our bfps! i will have fingers and toes crossed for us both. xxxxxxx

Just wanted to say chick, my OH's cousin had PCOS and was put on clomid, she just had twins! Although it must be hard knowing things aren't going to happen naturally at least now you know why it's not been happening for you and you will get all the help you need now.
Fingers crossed for a speedy BFP!!!

thanks Miss impatient! i have heard so many good reports from taking clomid and Metformin so im very hopeful for the first time in months. xxx

Diane, I'm so sorry I missed this until now. Also sorry to hear you had bad news, but the positive thing is that you're now going to get appropriate treatment, and hopefully this will lead to you getting your BFP very soon. A friend of mine was diagnosed with PCOS and actually got her BFP the cycle after the treatment began. She now has 18 month old twins. I really hope it all goes well for you xx

Thank you hun, how are you? how are things going? xxxxxx

Good thanks - had a lovely relaxing holiday. Unfortunately, I OVed late this month and so we missed it, as hubby is having to abstain for 3 days before giving a sample for his SA tomorrow morning - so we're definitely out for this month if I OVed when I think I did. We have our first appointment at the clinic on Wednesday evening, so hopefully we'll get some answers then xx

hi, altho i cant relate to this personally i have a friend who has PCOS and they have just found out they are having twins even tho they werent trying, it can happen and will happen xxx

Sorry you have bad news. Hoping it doesnt take you too much longer.

Big hug xxx
