I'm trying to conceive and I have Poly-Cystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). I was diagnosed with it around 15-16, and I'm 28 now. Also, I have lost some weight recently (20+ pounds), and I'm hoping that will help. Does anyone here have it, and if so, were you able to conceive?
Thanks!

Okay I have the same exact thing. What happens is you get cysts on your ovaries. Which makes it hard,but not impossible to have children. My doctor put me on Met-forman and a birth control. The birth control helps you have regular periods so the cysts don't form. My girlfriend had the same thing and took the Metforman and with in like 6 months see was pregnant. You may also get little black hairs on your chin which drive me crazy. I feel like the bearded lady at the circus.Just know that it isn't your fault at all.That it is not impossible to get pregnant. I wish you all the luck and blessings in the world. Know that people get pregnant everyday that have the same condition.

IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment; IUI, ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India. The cost is very low and the medical services are very good in India.
My cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the Forerunners Healthcare in India and is all praise for this company. She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full IVF treatment in India for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the newspapers. I have also read about a Chinese couple who planned surrogacy through the Forerunners Healthcare. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery and infertility treatment like IVF, IUI, and ICSI abroad for low price. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery and treatment can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

Why do people ask medical questions here? Umm... 50/50, 1/1000000. Pick one.
Hello? Talk to your doctor.
