Introducing myself

ttcintheoc · September 2015

hi my name is Kerry I'm new to the group. I've been through a lot I suffer from polycystic ovarian syndrome and because of PCOS I got uterine cancer. After treatment and going to a fertility doctor I was told the best thing for me would be to have gastric bypass. A little over a year and a half after I was advised to have gastric bypass I ended up having the procedure done. Since then I've lost over 100 pounds. And hopefully now I'll be able to get pregnant.

Welcome, and I'm sorry that you have had such a rough time so far. Congratulations on beating cancer and losing the weight! Will you be going on any fertility meds, or will you try on your own for a while?

I'm not sure yet I meet with my gynecologist this month and will find out :-)

I'm hoping to try without medication first. I hated being on clomid before.

Yeah Clomid turns me in to a raging ball of anger. I heard that people don't experience that with Femara...

BTW, do NOT take Clomid from your OBGYN if he or she doesn't do fertility testing (including a SA for your partner) and insist on being monitored with ultrasounds, especially since you have PCOS.

Yes my gyno is on top of that. Thank you!

Welcome

It looks like you've been through quite a bit to get here! Glad that you made it through all of that to be able to TTC now.
And I only did 1 round of clomid, and was totally off my rocker that month! I've got PCOS too and am taking femera, which doesn't make me crazy.
