For thoses who have told your partner about your pcos
When did u tell them???
We were already together when I first was diagnosed. But before the official dx, he already knew I has a long history of wonky periods and stuff and this conversation came when we were thinking of becoming lovers. It was part of the sex history, sex health, Birth control, etc convo.
When u guys were thinking about trying to have a baby??? Or What???
No, way before then. When we were talking about getting married we didn't have my dx, but we stopped to consider how my unknown health issues might affect our wishes for having kids. Before it was about preventing pregnancy and TTA, and at that point it was about TTC.
And how did u tell your partner???
Just straight out. "Hey, if we're going to get married, we need to talk religion, kids, politics, job, where to live, eldercare, death, and all that other 'big life' stuff. Because I don't want to find out surprises AFTER."
