My husband and I have been TTC for over 5
years. I have PCOS but with metformin my
cycle is now ok. I am trying IUI at the
moment and due to start IVF soon. I am
concerned that I have never been pregnant
and probably never will. I don't know what
to do. I feel that I can't give my husband
a child. I am even thinking of ending the
marraige because of it. Can someone please
help. I am so depressed! Don't know how to
move on from here!

I am so sorry. I know how it can feel.
Sometimes I feel less than a woman because
i had had so much trouble concieving. The
truth of the matter is that it will
happen, but obviously later than sooner.
you have come so far, don't loose hope. i
did my first iui couple of days ago after
3 yrs of ttc and I am 35 too
Don't give up and do not break your
marriage over this. Maybe ivf would do
the trick and you will be soooooooo happy
with your little one and look back
thinking it was all worth it. Hang in
there.

Hi Dear
I understand fully how you feel. I also
have pcos and have never been pregnant. I
am currently undergoing a series of blood
work. The results came in and my doctor
called me asking me to come in
immediately. I know that is never a good
sign so I am hoping and praying that
whatever it is I will be able to deal with
it. I am turning 34 years old in August
and I am so afraid I will not be able to
have kids. I just wanted you to know that
there are other people out here who have
similar problems, some worse than others
so keep your hopes up and something
positive will happen. I agree your
husband should be tested because his
health can change since he had his son.
Good luck.

DO NOT END A GREAT MARRIAGE BEACUSE OF
FERTILITY! My mother, grANdmother, myself,
and all my aunts AND COUSINS have PCOS to
various degrees. The one with the worst
case, my aunt, had a beautiful baby girl
all by accident, and she is now 16 and one
of the brightest most resposible people I
know. I myself was a miracle: my mother
had PCOS and an unpside down uterus. YOu
may not get more than one, but one is all
you need. ANd if your husband loves you,
he'd rather have only you then some other
woman and a billion kids.

i am a new member here and am reading your
message. i have been trying to get
pregnant for 4 years. i have pcos also. i
gave up on everything, i went through the
infertility and i got disappointed when it
did not work. i have now just ordered a
pill called ovulex for myself and another
pill for my husband. it is supposed to
help and i have heard people that have had
alot of success with it.... would you like
me to keep in touch to let you know? i am
so excited to try this......

I am a new member also and reading your
post it is as if i am speaking. We have
been ttc for 9 years now and i have never
been pregnant, did clomid for my ovulation
and that didn't help. Just bought Ovulex
for both myself and husband, hope this
works...wish me luck
PS. Don't break your marriage up because
of this, it has crossed my mind too, i
know my husband wast a baby but i think
this process is making us value all the
little simple things in life i.e like
having a baby more.
