Polycystic Ovaries Syndrome and Pregnancy
Posted , 3 users are following.
After not having my period for three months I went to my GP. I have had regular blood pressure and my BP is fine. I was referred for an ultrasound. From 2015, so far I have had the two months if my period. everything the same as before. This week I was diagnosed with mild POS. The cyst in my ovaries are less than 10cm. My GP said it's not severe but pregnancy may be difficult.
Although I am only 20 I would like to conceive in the future. I don't know if I should go on treatment even though I have been receiving my periods so far. I am only in this. Please help.

I also don't want to gain weight I would like to lose weight instead.
Even though am not trying for a baby now. How is the medication working for you? And what's your experience been like with POS.
I have a appointment with my GP to discuss treatment.

I have polycyclic ovaries., and endometriosis too me and my partner were trying for a baby for 2 years. But I had no periods for a year.
Saw gp and was referred to hospital. The consultant then gave me an option of ovarian drilling sounds bad but wasn't that bad.
They did 6 holes in each ovary. Meaning that 6 rggs are released instead of 1.this was an NHS Treatment. And only day surgery.
But wow what an operation I was pregnant within 2 weeks and am was blessed to give birth in June 2014. I would definitely recommend this procedure it's amazing.

Congratulations. I guess having POS doesn't mean I can't get pregnant. I am just a kind of person who worries a lot and thinks of the worst.
Since having the operation how's your period been and are you still able to get pregnant again? Does the 6 holes in each ovary mean a possibility of multiple birth?
By the way what is endometriosis?

Since surgery they went back to normal for 6 months. But now started going a but haywire again. But yeah I Could still have more children if I wanted but may need operation again if they stop altogether again.
By drilling six holes did give me a chance of multiple birth but I had an early scan to check.
Endometriosis is a skin growing on the ovary can make it hard to get pregnant can sometimes cause pain.
But look at it this way I had both and still had a baby so I'm sure u will be fine
