    • Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

      I was diagnosed at age 14. At that time I was put on birth control and they said it would fix its self. I was married at 19 (Now Divorced) and couldn't wait to start trying to get pregnant. I went off the pill, and started gaining weight, I went from weighing 130lbs. to 225lbs. I gained almost 100 lbs. in a period of 4 years. My husband and I tried and tried, then decided that we were having problems, and started using Clomid. I did that for a year, each month using a higher dose, with no luck.

      Treatments

      Clomid Not Working
      I took it for a year, each month using a higher dose, and no luck.
      Metformin Somewhat Helpful
      I guess it works. It does make me very sick to my stomach.
      Oral Contraceptives Working / Worked
      I take Microgestin.
      Provera Working / Worked
      It works every time I need to use it and I have no side effects.
    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      I got married on 4/3/04. I was 19. I thought it was for love because we didn't have any children and I wasn't nor had I ever been pregnant. January 4th of 2008 I left because he asked for a divorce. He said it was because he didn't want the responsibility of being a husband anymore, and he wanted a divorce. So, I left and gave him what he wanted, but my heart hurts everyday. I just don't understand how this can happen to me...

      Treatments

      Pets Working / Worked
      Hasn't really helped because they were "Our" dogs.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      It only works if they have been through it too.
      Time Working / Worked
      It does it easier with time.
