Hey, most of you may no me, I have pcos and I try giving others hope but its me who really needs it, it feels as if I would never get a (+), I can't get one with the OPK's,nor with the EPT's. Everyone around me is pregnant from my lil cousins (16,17) to aunts (36), and 3 of my friends, and I would even mention the ones who done conceive, I am engage but as of last night I told my fiance it wouldn't work, I can't give him what we really want, I did clomid and now on metformin, I would just wait and let nature takes it course even though my pcos is making me not ovulate, to all the ladies out there with pcos I would always come back to yahoo answer and give you some up dates, until then I'll be relaxing

hey, thanks alot you uys, but IVF is way to expensive my insurance doesn't covers it, so that one is way out of my mind

im sending you hugs and hoping that once you stop trying it comes naturally for you. I can understand how you feel, and want you to know you can email me anytime. Do what is right for you but please re consider your fiance I am sure if you really let him in you'd find he loves you unconditionally. I'm sure he understands better than you think he does what this is like for you and wants to help you. Take care

Have you talked about IUI or IVF with your doctor? They also have other medications, such as Gonal F and a few other injections that force your body to ovulate. They will usually try this after the Clomid if it doesn't work. There is always hope and there is great science now-a-days. You will get pregnant.
Please don't call off your wedding because of this whole thing... your fiance wants you for you, not you for your ability to have a child. He will go through this with you and be there to support you. Maybe planning the wedding will take your mind slightly off of TTC and it will happen when you least expect it.
If you need anything, if you need anyone to talk to, please feel free to e-mail me. My husband and I have been TTC our first child for 27 months now with no luck, so I understand a little about what you are going through.

Honey, your fiancee loves you for you, not for the kids you may or may not have. Take a break yes but don't quit there are other options, and don't leave your fiancee hanging in the wind, I bet he doesn't understand why you did what you did. Talk to him, he and you need to talk. It may feel like the end of the world for you seeing as you may not be able to have a baby, but there are miracle stories out there and maybe one day you could be one of them.
There is another ovulation tester out on the market, it uses your saliva and looks for ferning, the more ferning the closer you are to ovulation. It is a reusable one so you aren't continuously forking out money, go to a large chemist or pharmacy and ask, or look on the Internet for it.
Try not to stress about it (easier said than done) but the more you stress the more cortisol you release and it can inhibit sex hormones and ovulation, true, google it.
Please maybe even go and see a social worker or a counsellor and have a chat, you may feel better after and ready to make a better choice than a snap judgement.
Good luck Hun, do what ever is right for you!

I am going to give you my standard answer.......go get a book called "taking charge of your fertility" by Toni Weschler. It will help you truly understand your body and cycle and erase all the myths that women beleive about their bodies.I believed all the ovulation & conception myths that are floating around here until we tried for a year with no luck. My doctor recommended the book and it worked the very next month! It turned out my timing was wrong and that I don't ovulate in the middle of my cycle like most women.
I'll be 40 in Nov....and I am due to have my 4th in March!

You have to do what's best for you. I know that ttc can take its toll after awhile. I hope you get to feeling better. Good luck!
