PCOS

heidilleah

I am sure you get annoying questions like this all the time, but I still want to ask   anyways I was recently diagnosed with PCOS... so just started my first cycle of clomid, metformin and Ovidrel injection (this sat).  I know this increases chance of multiples, question is were any of you on these medications or did you go through anything similar?  just curious here!

 

thanks!

yup!

my DS is a clomid/IUI/met/trigger baby... singleton pg.  got pg with first cycle.

the twins took 2 cycles of the same protocol + i took wheat grass from CD1 until IUI date.

my full success story is at the end of my bio.

Clomid only increases your chances by approx 10%... most women do not end up with multiples. Just make sure to be monitored so you don't end up with six

baby dust to you!

the waiting stinks...and living your life in 2 week intervals is the worst. ? you'll get there soon enough. i hope that you join us soon, and if it's not 2 babies please let us know that the clomid worked for you. ?i'll keep you in my prayers. ?baby dust sent your way.......

Same, excpet we didn't do the IUI and I was taking metformin too.?

I didn't have any luck with my OB and had to go to an RE. After Clomid I did two rounds of Femara. On my inj. cycle I used femara too and have my beautiful babies below.

If I could do over, I wouldn't spend as much time with my OB and would have gone to an RE sooner.

Good Luck!?Clomid does work great for some people. Hope it does for you!

Same here, PCOS among a list of other crap. I did a bunch of Clomid never worked for me. I ended up getting pg on round 2 of IVF. Good Luck!!! Agree pm seeing a Reproductive Care Specialist.

They told me I had it also, the call came the day after my first OB appt- I was all ready Pg with twins, no meds used. I didn't see your ticker, so I don't know how long you've been trying but PCOS doesn't = no babies w/o help, just so ya know

I have PCOS..I did clomid..But what worked for me was IVF. I got PG with the twins, BUT when the twins were 4 months old we found out I was PG!!! It just happened!!?
