I'm sick of this waiting I want to know now, I want to know if I definitely have PCOS or not. I have been waiting forever... ok it's been a month and a half. it took 3 weeks to get an appointment, now it's been 3 weeks since that appointment and I had an ultrasound today and the technician said she doesn't know hot to interpret it so I have to wait again until the radiologist reviews my films and then on top of that I have to wait till I see my Doc. I want to be normal, but I know that'll never happen. I've accepted the fact that I most likely have PCOS but I want to move on from this inbetween phase. No more tests I want answers. I should be happy that I'm one step closer to finding it all out, but I'm more depressed about it. I'm scared of the changes I'm going to have to make and I'm worried about what will happen in the future when I want to conceive. I'm 23 and single, my biological clock has been ticking forever but I thought I've got time it'll be easy to conceive when I'm ready so long as I don't wait till I'm 35. Now I'm feeling limited and the fact that I don't have a husband, fiancee or even a steady BF doesn't help me. I'm scared that my worst fears will come true... that I will be an old maid and childless.

There, there I'm sure that your fears about having children are way premature! You're only 23..you have soo much time to think about finding a husband and having kids. I know that PCOS is scary...but tons of women who have PCOS have been able to conceive. When I was first diagnosed I was also frightened about not being able to have children but by looking at these boards I've seen many women have been able to.

CystaK

I was dx at age 24 because I could not get pg-at first-took clomid for a couple rounds and had DD-when DD was 14 months old we started trying because we thought it may take a while-but BAM-3 mo later with NO clomid and we were pg with DS-now though, I have been off all BCP/etc for 3 yrs and have not gotten pg-but we have not really been trying either- also, I was not dx through US, my cysts had ruptured, which with PCOS it can be a cycle of growing, rupturing, and growing again-i had went to ER with pelvic pain-afraid of MC since we had been trying to get pg-they did US-no pg, no cysts, but by then pain had began to subside-went to gyn who thought I had endometriosis-but after diagnostic lap saw the cysts forming again and in various stages and he dx me with PCOS
