Im sorry that your doctor seems PCOS ignorant. I would STRONGLY consider changing your doctor, I am assuming this is a family physcian (GP)? Most GP's that I know will not even try to get you ovualating, or try to solve the PCOS problem. They should be refering you to a experienced OB-GYN.

The doctor should not even be opening their mouth about whether or not that you can afford a baby mentally or physically.

I have a WONDERFUL doctors clinic who will refer you to either the Endocrine and Fertility Clinic, or a experience PCOS OB-GYN, and with PCOS, there is no 2 year wait to get your referal. As soon as I was diagnosed with PCOS I got my referal sent, I only was TTC for about 6 months with no meds. Once my referal was recieved it only took about 6 months in total to get to see a doctor at the clinic.

Clomid is NOT a death sentance for women - I work in pharmacy and it is a great drug that works wonders for women with PCOS. Hearing that your doctor says that makes me BEYOND mad,

Please let me know if there is any other information I can pass on your way.

Again, sorry it took so long to find your post, but weemes posted so we could help you out. Come join us over at http://www.soulcysters.net/albertan-...ke-2-a-262303/
