dear all
i found out yesterday that the doc and the person who did my AS, think i have PSOS. i have to go for a blood test next week to say if i defently have it. me and my partner were going to start trying for a baby next year, but this has hit him hard as well. so i was wondering how long it would take and what is the best way and is there any side affects from Clomid,Metfurmin and what is Insulin resistence. sorry to ask so meny Q.

Thank you

We tried to get pregnant for over 2 years. I was almost 90 lbs overweight- worked out hard- tried to lose weight with minimal results. Clomid didn’t work for me- no effect whatsoever. Really high levels of Progesterone shots did work- but it took 4 cycles. The thing is- if it hadn’t worked, my doctor warned that we wouldn’t be good IVF candidates either. My body just wasn’t growing or releasing eggs. It did work, I had a very healthy pregnancy and a very healthy son. Now a few months after I’ve stopped breast feeding my body seems like it might reset itself and I’ve started to lose a little more weight with just watching my diet. That makes me hopeful and I’m now stepping up my weight loss efforts. Good luck! Have hope! It’s just a matter of chemistry and finding the right combo that works for you.

Hi, My name is Nicole. I have been trying to have a baby for the past 4 years and I soo want one. I watch my sisters having them and I cant. I have not gotten checked out for PCOS but I know two of my cousins have it and I have some symtoms of having this and its in my blood too so I was hopeing I can get pregnant. Please help!

No really it is possible. My four year old daughter is living proof.

I tried the whole clomid and metformin thing for quite awhile, and it didn’t work. I was also very overweight. So, when my ex-husband and I separated…I lost about 50 to 60 pounds. I started dating my current fiance in sept ‘03, and found out that we were pregnant Christmas morning ‘03. Talk about a whirlwind…our daughter was almost a month old by the time our first anniversary rolled around.

I’m sure you know all about that insulin resistence thing. Jessa was almost 9 pounds at birth, and required a c-section. So, the trouble with me is that since she was my first successful birth, I gained all of my weight back. I know that if we want to try and have a son…..I’m gonna have to drop again. I dunno if any of this helps, but don’t give up hope!!!

Anyone been able to do this by using Metformin?
