My name is Kyanna Daugherty and I was diagnosed with PCOS last month. I have had the symptoms since I was a teenager and was always told that everything was normal and that I should be thankful I didn't get a period very often. It took 3 years to get pregnant with our son who is now 6 years old. Since then, we have been unable to have any more kids and have come to terms with it. We're thankful that God blessed us with one!!

I'm scared tho because I don't think I fully understand what it is, how bad mine is, etc. Besides blood work, my GYN hasn't order any other testing. Of course the blood work has come back normal just like it always does.

I don't know where to start finding answers or what to ask. I know I probably shouldn't be scared, but I am.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you!

Hello, my name is Robin. It took me quite a long time to be diagnosed with PCOS as well. What helped me was going to an OBGYN that specialized in PCOS, from there they referred me to a reproductive endocrinologist. They are really good at helping people with PCOS get pregnant. My husband and I have not been able to acheive pregnancy yet but my periods have been regular with medication that I have been given for the past 6 months (that's the first time in 8 years), so we are hopefully on our way to having a child soon. PCOS not only can affect reproductive issues, but has an impact at times on insulin use in the body, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, etc. If you are not getting the answers you need from you current doc try to seek someone in your area that really knows about this condition and can help you get on medication to regulate your cycles. I feel confident that you would be able to have another child if you found a doctor who knows more about PCOS, like an RE. I think you will enjoy this sight and find a lot of encouragement in women who are in your situation. PCOS is controllable.
