Angry Uhhhhhggggggg!!

I remember when I graduated high school was when my periods began to drop off the map. I went through thinking I am pregnant, went to doctors, they ran tests but didn't know what was wrong with me. They put me on the pill to keep regular. I began abnormal hair growth, gained extreme amounts of weight, and slowly began to find ways to hide these things from the world. I never brought these issues to anyone, not even a doctor, as I was so incredibly embarassed by my body and the strange abnormal things it was doing. I stayed on the pill, which helped me maintain my weight a little tiny bit. I spent anquishing hours removing hair in any way I could, finding shaving to be the quickest, easiest, cheapest remedy. Now I am married, and we want to have children. In the process of trying to get pregnant, I have been told that I have PCOS. My husband says he understands...lastnight I broke down, and expressed all the pain, and crap I have had to deal with in the last 13 years. I told him everything, every way I cover up some of my problems. I was so good at hiding it the extra hair growth, not even my husband realized it. I guess of everything I have had to deal with, the hair....is the most embarassing, anguishing for me. Its gross....I'm girl! I am not supposed to have sideburns, and chin hairs...or a trail of hair on my navel! Anyway...I am on clomid, and we are trying to concieve. Anyone else had experience with clomid? Any luck?

try the ttc board, there are lots of women there who are on clomid and can talk to you about it.... im ttc, but not on clomid yet....

i know exactly how you feel... i was lucky to have found out about PCOS when i was younger, but hav never really been lucky in being treated. i was just put on birth controle, which was fine for a while....

i too had to find ways to cover up the hair or get rid of it... most of mine is on my belly, and in the five years i have been with my hubby, he only just now noticed, and only because i pointed it out....i think husbands over look some of the "bad" qualities in wives when they love them so much

this is a great board, and i hope you find the support you need.... there are great women here
