My Mood: Points: 3,773.44 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 3,773.44 | Dx'd yesterday at age 34.5 I dont' know what to say here.
I have PCOS. I know it's not a death sentence, but when you're 34 and already have a special needs child it kind of feels like it. Sam was my 2nd pg. My first ended at 8 weeks. Both times, I conceived within 2 cycles.
So, when I went off Loestrin-24 in March last year due to other health issues, I thought, no problem. We really played TTC as more of a not preventing. We wanted to wait til our insurance changed, which it did in January. Well, I had a cycle in March and then not again til September.
In that 6 months, I did have labs done that came back "normal". I did a 10-day dose of Provera that did NOTHING. not even spotting.
From the end of Sept til my annual in January, more nothingness other than two single days of spotting (12/12 and 1/12). So, I went for more labs and scheduled an ultrasound since we really were now looking at a ticking clock for my 35th birthday. (this was a very personal decision that we would not try to have children after 35)
I had the ultrasound yesterday and I can remember hearing "string of pearls" in regard to my right ovary. The left has only one cyst.
In addition to the cysts, my uterus is tilted backward and shifted to the left. Probably why my son got completely lodged and had to be taken c/s.
So, that's my intro about my dx.
Abotu me?
I'm a WOHM to a 2.5 year old wonderful little boy. My husband and I have been together for almost 5 years, married nearly 4. We live in Kissimmee, FL and I work in the school division of a very large publishing company. |
