kilter

Hi there,

I'm sorry if this has come up a thousand times before, but the more I read about PCOS, fertility, miscarriage, etc., the more it's my impulse to figure out how to just lower my #$&#& LH levels. Everything else in my lab work seemed pretty normal, and my main symptoms are irregular periods and doubtful ovulation. Can someone help me find information on long-term methods (prescription, natural, alternative, whatever) to get these numbers in line?

I'd like to have a baby in the near future, but I'm uncomfortable just popping clomid and crossing my fingers to avoid a miscarriage... I guess the goal isn't just pregnancy, but proper function--is that a pipe dream? If not, what can I do?

In case it's helpful, here's a little info on me... I'm 28, never been pregnant, despite two years of sex w/o birth control (after coming off the pill). Got my period at 15 and it was incredibly unpredictable until I got on the pill at 19 (and stayed on for 6 years). I'm thin, eat pretty well (no processed foods), get a fair amount of exercise, and am currently taking Vitex, folic acid, and the occasional vitamin. Had three regular periods back to back this year (Aug, Sept, Oct), then one late one (Nov--two weeks late), and still waiting for Dec.

Any help much appreciated.
