I had my scan today and had to have an internal too (ew, they left that part out!)

The lady said that from my lining and fluid that it's possible that either I ovulated and am due for a period (which means despite our best BDing efforts just for the hell of it - I'm talking at least every second day all month) I'm probably not pg. Or my body is playing yet more tricks on me. Will have to wait for the blood test results when I go back to the gyno next Friday (11th).

And apparently some of my cysts have 'joined forces' cos I have a rather large one on my right ovary compared to the little ones on my left ovary. Oh Joy!!

Anyway, will keep you all informed as to how I get on next Friday. Thanks for all of your lovely thoughts and advice ladies :) ]]> Tue, 01 May 2007 16:10:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=138636&title=going-in-tomorrow#138636 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135983&title=going-in-tomorrow#135983 Author: LuluBelle85

Hey Emz

Good luck with everything! We were going to start clomiphene last year but decided to wait till I have lost weight (I have LOTS to lose, lol). So hopefully it won't be too long till I am in the same position as you

All the best! Let us know how you go!

You too Kye. It was quite obvious from a young age (not going through puberty) that something was wrong. I got my first AF late at 14, then not another until late 15, then nothing again so have been on the pill ever since. It was great never having periods, now it's a darn nuisance!

Wow emz thats a young age to be diagnosed with it! lucky that you are onto things now though all the best I am glad that I decided to come off the pill now and that we made the decision to ttc now rather than when we were in our 30s like our original plans as I am sure it would all be alot harder the older that you are and the pill has masked the pcos so I dont know how long I have had it for? all the best for your ttc journey ]]> Wed, 25 Apr 2007 17:24:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135779&title=going-in-tomorrow#135779 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135743&title=going-in-tomorrow#135743 Author: emz

Kye, when I was diagnosed at 15 with PCOS, my bloods were all normal (well, you know, within the normal range, although slightly elevated testosterone but nothing extreme). That's why I had to have further tests to find out if I had it or not. I guess I'm quite lucky in a roundabout way that I found out quite early on so I could get into the treatment process quickly.]]> Wed, 25 Apr 2007 14:32:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135743&title=going-in-tomorrow#135743 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135646&title=going-in-tomorrow#135646 Author: tropics

Hey Emz thats awesome news! I might be joining you and noodle soon...I see a gyno 7th may...2 1/2 weeks at Ascot I think too? and the Dr said he will prob put me on clomid, I had scans last week that showed suspected PCOS but my bloods came back normal? Kiwigirl I have been trying for 6 months but also like the other girls I had long and irregular cycles..its a good idea to get some tests done if you think that there is possibly something wrong, or even for piece of mind I have a friend who has been TTC for over 2 years and her and her partner dont seem to have anything wrong but it just hasnt happened! so she is getting help now but her tests have always come back normal...just one of those things good luck girls thats very reassuring news Nzpiper ]]> Wed, 25 Apr 2007 11:02:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135646&title=going-in-tomorrow#135646 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135434&title=going-in-tomorrow#135434 Author: peanut butter

Goodluck emz, I also have PCOS although apart from gaining weight I dont think I was badly affected. I wasnt ovulating when it was diagnosed but as soon as I saw the Doc my periods started and were like clockwork since (go figure??)

Luckily I conceived on first attempt but I had been told like you that if I dont conceive after 3 months of trying to get help. I now use that doc as my obstrecian. So far it is all sweet.

I have another friend who was told she had PCOS and would "probably never get pregnant and if she did would not carry full term" 3 babies on and she's not looking back.

So go for it and best of luck!!!]]> Tue, 24 Apr 2007 18:34:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135434&title=going-in-tomorrow#135434 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135429&title=going-in-tomorrow#135429 Author: noodle

Hi kiwigirrl, we had only been TTC 2 months but I was told by my docs that 'just give it a go for a couple of months, then we'll refer you' there was pretty much a very slim chance of me falling pg.

I don't mind telling you at all - I have PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) which in turn means (and not all people get this) I have no cycles and I'm not ovulating. I also have a prostratic glandular uterus (or something like that) which means my uterus contracts and loses its blood supply, so have to be monitored.

What I would do is go to your GP, say you have concerns. You can get sperm tests done, and then they might do tests on you, or make you wait 3 more months (the usual waiting time is 12 months unless you have pre-diagnosed conditions). From that you can start the testing process and maybe get some help to get pg. Good luck!]]> Tue, 24 Apr 2007 17:35:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135417&title=going-in-tomorrow#135417 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135368&title=going-in-tomorrow#135368 Author: kiwigirrl

Hey! I just read your posts, I'm thinking of making an appointment to see someone at the moment, would you mind telling me how long you'd been trying for and what made you go see someone, what you thought was wrong?? We've been trying for 9 months, charting, using pre seed and lots of vitamins etc and I've been having accupuncture but nothings working, just got AF again today so I'm thinking about making an appointment. ]]> Tue, 24 Apr 2007 15:24:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135368&title=going-in-tomorrow#135368 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6884&PID=135027&title=going-in-tomorrow#135027 Author: emz

Hi all!

Well went to my gyno today, and he said that I can start with treatment in as little as 3 weeks!

Just had bloods done and have to go in for an ultrasound, and then if nothing from that end is wrong I'll get started on the Provera (I think) and clomiphene. Definitely what I wanted, just hope nothing else is wrong, but he doesn't think so.

For my first specialist appt. Don't really know what to expect, and unfortunately DH is on a course so can't come with me.
