introduction {{pcos&hypothyroidism}}

in Trouble TTC
Hi all--
I've been lurking and stalking for the past year or so because I always knew SOMETHING was wrong.
That something got a diagnosis yesterday. PCOS & Hypothyroidism. I have never naturally had AF besides being on bcp for less than a year when I was 17 or so. I'm 21 now and a newlywed.
My DH has been supportive but not very understanding as it's been hard for him because he has raging baby fever. I'm just hoping to find a helpful support system here and other ladies that I can talk to and hear their stories too.
It's all still sinking in.
Today was day #1 on levothyroxine and tonight will be my first dosage of progesterone.
Can't wait to start getting to know everyone (even though wishing it wasn't under these circumstances)
xoxo paige

@hrushka -- thank you and just over a year.
@rainbowbridge14 -- thank you and no re yet. I am starting with my obgyn to try to get my body first to a semi-normal state. She is very knowledgeable in IF and I have multiple recommendations. She wants to get my thyroid levels between 2&3 (i believe) and is hoping the progesterone will get me to start ovulating. Fingers crossed!!
I have NO IDEA what to be expecting

Everyone us being INCREDIBLY helpful and I can't say thank you enough! I honestly had no idea about all these tests that I will obviously need to be more proactive about.
My follow up appt for my thyroid levels isn't until February. And I will be having bloodwork done in 6 weeks. DH is aware of SA and is all on board with that.
I know it's a long shot but is anyone from Seattle area that can suggest an excellent RE? I'll be doing research on that today. I am just so frustrated though because insurance doesn't cover IF so we will have to take it slow.
Again, I can't thank everyone enough for being so kind, welcoming, and helpful!
