TTC and polycystic ovary syndrome

Hi,
I have been dealing for a while with TTC unsuccessfully. My doctor did a progesterone test a few months ago, and it showed I wasn't ovulating. Now with some other tests, we are starting to suspect POS. I am wondering if anyone else here is dealing with something similar, and how you are handling it. I had a few ovarian cysts a year ago, and the doctor said it was nothing, now I feel they could have missed diagnosing this much earlier and feel really frustrated. All of my friends are either pregnant or had kids this past year, so I feel so alone, known of them understand that this is a real issue, they just say "it will happen soon". Im knew here, and was afraid to post, but I really need to feel that Im not alone. Thanks!

Re: TTC and polycystic ovary syndrome
Hi!
You aren't alone. There is a whole PCOS check in on Thursdays. Are you seeing a Reproductive Endocrinologist or are you still with your OBG/GYN? If you aren't seeing a RE yet now is the time to make an appointment. They will provided with the proper care and monitnoring and are more knowledgeable about TTC with PCOS then your everyday OB/GYN.
Good luck!! I hope your stay is short.
You are definitely NOT alone! There are MANY ladies on this board dealing with PCOS, all on different treatments with different experiences. Welcome to the board...I think you'll learn a lot and get much needed support.
Aslo to echo another comment- are you seeing an RE yet? They're going to be your best doctor to see to deal with all of this.

I have a mild PCOS. I still ovulate every month but some months I ovulate very late. Where in your cycle did your dr test you? Do you get your period every month? or every other? I found www.Fertilityfriend.com very helpful at tracking my cycles. I agree with the others see a RE.
Good luck!
Thanks for the support! I am still with my OB/GYN, but she is a fertility specialist. I will ask for a referral, I live overseas and my healthcare works quite differently, so I will start checking on that. Thanks.
I get a period every 30-32 days, but after trying an OCOP kit every month and never getting a positive test, I asked my doctor for a progesterone test, which showed no ovulation, now she has me get tested every month to keep checking, so far no ovulation. I don't have a "confirmed" diagnosis yet, but my doctor is leaning towards it since some other hormone tests have come back also pointing to POS. It would also explain a number of other issues I have.
