no one in my family has gone through early menopause, if so it will be w blow ad i was working on getting my health back in order because once my a1c went down and my weight got down my doctors said i could try and have a baby. i know i would be high risk but i got married later in life and we let life get in the way and when i turned 37 thats when everyone around me was having babies and we decided that we wanted to try for one
