So after a year of talking we have finally decided to try and get pregnant. Sound easy? not so with my history. With a provincial diagnosis of PCOS in 2007 we didn't try and treat the infertility side as I wasn't trying to get pregnant nor was I thinking about it in the next couple of years.
We regulated my periods and over 2 years ago I came off the pill - Loette and was getting irregualr 3 monthly periods which only recently (6 months - 1 year) became regular again.
My general naivety led me to believe that if I was menstruating regularly I was also ovulating regularly - apprently not so. Did my reasearch and found a symptom of PCOS was irregular, infrequent or absent ovulation.
I was shattered - wondering now if I had left it too late. Now I'm doing the 'what ifs' and have now come to some sort of conclusion that while I was on Loette (early 18s 19s to 20s) this may have damaged my capabilities of ovulating as it basically blocks ovulation and is as they say a 'combined pill'.
So we are only in the first month or so of trying naturally but I am so impatient and am tryingto stay positive whilst deep down thinking that we may have to go down the path of fertility treatment - clomid, ovarian driling etc.
But here's hoping that there's some life in the old duck yet......because this is all doing my head in!
