Hi everyone! My husband and I had been trying for a few months then my period decided to stop all together. After months of testing I was diagnosed with androgen dominant PCOS. My doctor recommended us to a fertility specialist. Several more months of testing we agreed to do an egg retrieval then a few months later do an FET. Our first FET was in nov and ended with a BFN. Our second one is scheduled today. Every single symptom I had leading up to the first transfer is completely different so hoping for the best!
We tried to keep all of this very quiet through the first FET but I quickly found it was too hard so we have told our family members but it is still hard to explain to people who have not been through it before. I was super excited when I found this thread! I’m excited to meet some people and be able to connect. Good luck to everyone!
