Remaining Optimistic

by Darcie

I also do not have a success story yet, but I am remaining optimistic. It is fantastic to have a forum like this where so many positive experiences are shared.

I was officially diagnosed with PCOS about a year and a half ago when my husband and I began to try for a family. Prior to that time, I was passed around from one doctor to another, none of whom was able to explain my lack of menses.

When I inquired about the possibility of having PCOS, that idea was dismissed because I don’t have any obvious symptoms (not overweight, not insulin resistant, no pronounced hirsutism, etc.).

Once they did diagnose PCOS (via ultrasound), I was put on Clomid and reacted poorly. I have now undergone 3 cycles with ingestibles that have enabled me to ovulate, but still no pregnancy.

I’m thinking about exploring a more homeopathic approach, but I have a difficult time finding information on PCOS. If anyone knows any good resources or has a similar experience, please post it.

Editor's Note: This site is probably the most comprehensive informational site about PCOS that can be found on the entire Internet.

There are dozens of articles. In addition, our newsletter archive contains a wealth of valuable research information about polycystic ovary syndrome.

Another resource is our PCOS diet book. The first part of the books explains in some detail what polycystic ovarian syndrome is and what causes it.
