Intro ** Siggy Warning **

Hello!  *waves*

I'm not sure how much information everyone likes in an introduction, so I'll just touch on the basics.  I'm 28 years old, DH is 33. We have a 3 year old daughter, and have been TTC a sibling for 12 months with no success.  After my IUD was removed this time last year, I had a cycle as expected, and then nothing.  In February I went to my OBGYN and was given progesterone to kick start another cycle. She ran some blood work on CD3 and diagnosed me with PCOS.  She started me on metformin, which regulated my cycles, but still no luck conceiving.  A few weeks ago, I went to my PCP for what I thought was a UTI.  It turned out that I actually had a large cyst on my left ovary.  The cyst, which was the size of a cantaloupe, was removed yesterday along with my left ovary and fallopian tube. 

I'm bummed about losing an ovary ... bummed about sitting out this cycle while recovering ... nervous about our chances of conceiving.

    Thank you!  I'd never noticed that board before.  Definitely a better fit. 

    I thought I'd removed DDs picture and the ticker from my siggy, but can't seem to get it off.  Sorry to blindside anyone!

    I'm so sorry about that cyst. That is horrible :(

    I hope you're able to get a good plan in place to manage the PCOS. If you're not already, get hooked up with an RE. They'll be much better equipped to help you!

    Oh my, I'm so sorry for the loss of your ovary and tube!

    Sounds like time to get together with an RE, who can make sure there aren't any other untreated causes of IF, and provide the most effective treatment.

    I am never one to care about a child mentioned, but I physically jumped when I saw your young daughter, it was so unexpected on the TTTC board. I'm guessing it would be quite painful for some others on the board. Until TB signature settings cooperates on your (super adorable and personality plus!) photo, I'd like to suggest that you add "siggy photo warning" or such to the title. It's just something that we really don't expect to see here.
