I have written before but I am so worried
about my ablility to have children later
on because of my irregular periods. I
noticed white discharge from my breast a
while ago and I went to a specialist who
says its hormonal which would tie into my
period problem but also that means im not
ovulating regularly or at all. Im so
scared that I wont be able to have babies.
Does anyone know anything that can make
me look on the brighter side before I go
to the gyno and check to see if everything
is ok. And even after I go to the gyno I
dont know if I will be able to concieve
and im only 20 so im young. Someone
please help me out here. Thank you.

Hi there! Just keep in mind, it never
hurts to get a second opinion. Nowadays
they have come a long ways and their are a
lot of kids and baby's that need a good
home via adoption.
Good luck to you! Don't stress out as it
does not help!

Thank you for the feedback. I asked my
specialist about the possible problems
with future fertility and she said that
she would not worry about it and that if I
still have irregular periods when im ttc
then I would have to plan out getting
pregnant really good. But even with that
being said, I still wont know if I would
be ovulating so that is what im soo afraid
of. Is there any meds I could take to
regulate periods and help hormones as well
as fertility?

I've had irregular periods since my very
first period. I've never had regular
periods, and I began menses 12 years ago.
I have been pregnant 3 times.
Having irregular periods is not an
indicator of infertility.

If you really just want to have regular
periods why not ask to go on the birth
control pill??? I have pcos and was only
having 2 periods a year at the
most.....I'm 21 and i'm going to have
fertility problems when I first found out
I freaked.....Cried lots....I wouldn't
worry the first thing i'd do is look in to
the pill having a period monthy will
probably easy your mind

Well, I don't know if I can shed some
light but i'll try.
My sister her whole life had irregular
periods and never was sexually protected
with her boyfriend because she wanted a
baby but they were together nine years
before she got pregnant and they wern't
trying at the time. Not being able to
have children runs in our fathers side of
the family so doctors and everyone pretty
much were saying she couldn't have
children. Then one day she got pregnant.
Now she wants to have another child and is
having the same problems she even went to
the doctor and got a bad pap smear.
Sometime you get pregnant when your not
trying or worring so much. Take it easy
i'm sure your fine some people just don't
get pregnant easy. P.S I know this sounds
weird but do you have a tilted uterus?
Sometimes that can make it more difficult
to get pregnant.

Thanks for the info. I dont want to do bc
because I was on bc for 5 years and we
think that is what had caused me to have
irregular periods when I went off of them.
Im just scared that I wont be able to
have kids and that is something I have
always wanted. My whole family is fertile
as a field and pops out kids left and
right so at least that runs in the family.
The breast specialist I went to says she
thinks its hormonal and that I shouldnt
have a problem getting pregnant later on.
I just dont know what to do to regulate
hormones without the bc. Im worried!

There are some things you can take to help
you conceive and it will also help your
periods become more regular.I am not
talking about birth contrl but I am also
not sure what the meds are called.You can
also buy herbal stuff online.

Never in my life have I had regular
periods, and I got pregnant about 2 months
after going off birth control.

The patch. I just had a stupid moment and
can't remember the name of it. Lol.
I stopped taking it because I read a lot
about how it causes more blood clots and
stuff than the pill.
