question about getting pregnant

Posted on 07/08/08, 05:02 pm

I have PCOS and am currently on Yasmin for treatment. I am NOT READY to have children YET, but I'm curious what kind of treatments and procedures one has to go through to conceive. I am thinking about getting pregnant within the next 5 years and I was wondering what I can do to get myself prepared.

Thanks!

  I can tell you that the older you get the harder it is to get pregnant. There are a lot of great medications and surgical treatments available it just depends on what you body needs. Just don't wait too long.
  
  Good Luck,

  Thanks for your help! :)
  
  See, I matured at age 8 and I'm 27 now. I'm scared I'll have trouble conceiving anyway...my period, when I'm not on the pill, is nonexistent. I weight 250 lbs which is also a problem. I will be sure to look into those treatments and take your advice. I'm sure losing weight and becoming more active will help.

just to come and talk about PCOS and how you are dealing with it or if you just need a friend to talk with about it
