TTC After a Loss

Intro

Hey ladies. I've been reading and reading and driving myself crazy, so I guess it's time I actually introduce myself. I got married in March of this year, but late last year decided to go off birth control. I have PCOS, and I've been told it would probably be difficult for me to conceive, so I figured the earlier we started trying, the earlier we could get help if we're having issues. Well, low and behold, I got pregnant in January. I was shocked and thrilled! I miscarried at 9 weeks - the week before my wedding. I was devastated, but because of everything going on with the wedding, it helped that I didn't have time to lose it. I felt like I was doing pretty well emotionally until recently. Now that we're trying again, I have so many questions that I really don't have answers for. What if my PCOS prevents me from getting pregnant again? What if I do get pregnant and miscarry again? Since I don't really have anyone in my support system who's been through this, I'm looking forward to connecting with people who can relate.

Hello, and welcome to the board. I'm very sorry for your loss. I don't have much experience to offer you in terms of PCOS. I would think that you conceiving once is a good sign but that's me speaking as a definite non-expert. As far as having a second miscarriage, your odds do not go up, I believe, unless there was some sort of identifiable cause. I believe the odds are just the same as miscarrying a first pregnancy. Unfortunately it is one of those scary risks that come along with being pregnant. Wishing you all the best.

Curious about my ute?
I was referred immediately to an RE once I was DX with PCOS. Is this a possibility for you? Make sure you get a full blood work up as there are many things that can be associated with PCOS such as thyroid issues, which I was also DX with. If you ever want to talk feel free to PM I'm by no means an expert but I'm willing to listen and advise as best I can.

I know, that's as clear as mud, but you really need to know what your body's doing (or not doing) before you will know how to proceed. PM me anytime if you have questions.

Rmpar29, I was diagnosed a few years ago, and went to an endocrinologist for awhile. After many many visits and lots of blood work, I felt like I wasn't any better off than before, so I quit going. My cycles are pretty regular most of the time, but I've also had some pretty bad ruptured cysts. I don't think I'll go back to my endocrinologist, but if I need it, I'd be open to going to an RE. I haven't been tracking my temperature, but I think I'll start.
Meredithcarole, my edd was 10/6, so really close. To jj32 as well, I'm sorry for your loss. When I miscarried, it seemed like the type of thing you're not really supposed to talk about, especially amidst the wedding celebrations, which was incredibly isolating. It's comforting to know I wasn't the only one going through that.
