Hi.
Just wanted to say just saw your notification to me just now!!!!
Anyway! I have tried not to but into the "Man Section" of the board as I reckon when you 1st joined I had a little issue that bothered me which we won't go into, "Ancient History" Well just wanted to say no hard feelings and I'm sorry if I came across all protective of a cyster, it's just my nature. Although I admit I can be protective argumentive, but I am also a very good listener, and am understanding and actually hate disagreements, so basically hope all is well with you and your wife/partner etc.
As you well know PCOS is a horrible illness but we can deal with it with support.
Personally I like to read the husbands/BF section to get info on how to be better myself. I sooooo want to be me again!!! I'll get there.
This is a great website, but sometimes you get people like you and I who are human and can be rude withouth meaning to be!!!!! Sometimes a total misunderstanding.
Just saying welcome to the board
All is forgotten, I hope you understand where I was coming from in a way. I was over joyed at the thought of talking to other men that can help me in many ways and that I can hopefully help them. With that said at the time it threw me for a loop (not really understanding it an open fourm nit just men) and I posted as I did. I was worng not thinking at the time my LW was the only one I needed to take care of. But all is better and helping anywhere I can. If I seem rude at time remember I am blunt the military trained me that way. No hard feeling at all.
Hi,
Glad you got my message!
All good here and sorry we got off to a wrong start.
This is not the place for stress.
Hope you find this a helpful site, and feel free to ask away.
I bet you are sick of PCOS, well I am as it has taken away soooo much but I'm dealing with it one step at a time.
Fertility I've beat it with IVF (don't worry not all PCOS sufferers need to go that far)
I'm not very overweight but 1 or 2 sizes too big, so seeing a dietician for that so I will beat that too. I am very stubborn, but the weight issue is so unfair as my dietician says I haven't been eating enough, so regular meals has got me on my way.
Anyway! If you have any questions for me that I can advise with I will be happy to help, but won't give my opinion unless it is asked for lol.....
I still have lots of other issues which I bet you are well aware of all the other symptoms, only thing I will say for now is deal with every issue of pcos that you can 1 at a time though as PCOS is a tough cookie.
As most of all my posts say to anyone PCOS is a life long battle that both go through. Not all men learn enough about PCOS well it hard to when there so much out and not everthing tells you what you are going to deal with since every case of PCOS is different. We talk about everything now. At first not knowing what was going on for 2 years almost ended our marriage at the time of 7 years. But now we know and meds/ learning/ and couping has made all the difference. But ty for your words and Ill keep them in mind when I am having one of those days.
Hello again!
Not stalking you lol....
I think having the husbands/boyfriends section has been an eye opener for me as me been the person with the illness and all that comes with it I kinda neglected my hubby in ways you guys have spoken about. I am very self concious and eventhough I want nothing more than to cuddle my hubby, because of pain racing hormones and self image, I'm afraid to lead him on, so I have explained how I felt that it's not him, and can we just snuggle up on the couch and see how it goes, and we seem to be able to communicate more. I never realised how bad men feel, and never believed my hubby when he's says I'm gorgeous and is so proud to walk down the street with me. He says he wishes I could see me how others do, so I'm trying to concentrate on my flaws, deal with what I can. We are together 10 yrs also, so I don't blame pcos for everything. I also have endometriosis, and M.E. so I'm exhausted most of the time. Not sure if your wife suffers from fatigue, if she says she does I would believe her.
My hubby is the best, I love him so much, and hope to make all this PCOS crap go away. If I find anything that helps I will share.
Have a nice day!
Now that we know what is going on I believe her no matter what is going on. They just upped her dose of Met. You said something that needs to change or at least we changed the way we look at it.

I know its easy to say dont do this but here it goes dont do this. You need to not only listen to you hubby but believe him. As you have told me to believe my wife when she going thru things. Its easy to believe that you are the only one going thru this pain in the butt disorder but your not. Us men that stick or your Wifes/GF go though alot, but we are masters of hiding it rembmer we are to be the rock and nothing brothers us. And most of us men dont care about the lack of sex stuff. To me it was more important to get my wife back or as much back as I could. THe looks the cuddling the little talks anything really. PCOS in a way make most drawl within this is where we men get left out. My wife once told me she wanted me there but just could not get out. but enough of my rants see ya on the boards and tell your hubby if he needs an ear i am on the boards.
Hi,
I meant to say I am NOT trying to concentrate on my flaws, very hard though.
I have shown him this site and told him about the husbands/bf section etc but he just says ya I have read up on it. He does understand I think?? Hope!!!
My hubby describes me as a gorgeous babe with the most beautiful eyes which is the 2 things I was teased for as a child. Not sure where you live but there is a programme called "How to look good naked" by Gok Wan I think, it's this guy who gets all these women and gets them to dress to suit their figure etc and make them feel good about themselves, and to concentrate on their good bits, will send u the link here it goes http://www.tiscali.co.uk/lifestyle/w...ood-naked.html
Just gives tips on how to feel good about yourself, the programme is brill.
Anyway enough from me for one day, nite....
