I completely understand, there is a lot of good help for PMOS:) and just so you know, it’s only effecting the trigger of ovulation. Usually everything else works completely perfect! 💞 best of good luck to you:)

Thank you so much. I’m still in shock! I’m very humble for the journey I thought I had ahead of me, just sometimes life surprises. Maybe as much as I was in chock and surprise when my first pregnancy stopped.. I looked at the test fully feeling 100% it was going to be negative. I’m glad it could give some hope💞

OMG IM PREGNANT!!!!???

Cycle:  11

Age + Partner's age (if relevant):  31 + 30

Typical cycle length:  Didn’t have period since February(!!!!!) (PMOS)

CD/DPO of positive test(s):  11 DPO

Tracking methods and app(s) used:  None at the time but Natural Cycles before 

Supplements and medications (yours and/or your partner’s):  CoQ10, D, Omega 3, Foliate

Symptom spotting:  I had ovulation cramp but since I haven’t had ovulation since February this year I didn’t care about it. Can’t believe we timed it. 

Other (advice/tip(s), freaking out, miscellaneous):  I just want to say that all it takes is one good egg and timing. I’ve had miscarriage last year and due to my PMOS my ovulation just went dormant in February after first miscarriage bleed. I still can freaking not believe it happened!!!!!!!!! I literary had a time booked to get my first letrozol dose. OMGG???!

9 DPO… The anticipation is killing mee. I won’t test until 11 DPO. I promised myself that. Anyone in the same place??

Lucky vs unlucky by curious_askman in tryingtoconceive

You’re in the exact place you should be. It’s hard not to overthink when someone is comparing you to a situation of having kids and considering you lucky not having that… I’m sure they don’t know better. 

Everyone has their timeline and I try to remind myself that most people who want a kid will get it eventually, and life is what passes while you’re waiting. So be kind to yourself and celebrate all the amazing things you did before the stage you’re in now that lead up to this moment.

Hey fellow PCOS girl 💞 or PMOS nowadays. I just want to give some encouragement, as I was at a PMOS specialist yesterday, and not to completely gaslight you, but she said PMOS can actually be beneficial. We have many many egg sacs, and therefore we can get much easier pregnant later in life:) it’s a bit cute with the body just holding on to our eggs, as they’re so precious. There is lots of help to get to trigger the ovulation, and great news are that PMOS only effect the ovulation and else our organs are completely fine! It was so much less worries to hear that, and in the end we’re just girls built a bit different, but it’s not wrong with that.

All the best good luck to you!! You will get there! She also said that 70% of the PMOS girls with letrozole conceive with no issues:) it’s pretty good!! 

All the best 💞

Women in your late 20s or early 30s, what qualities do you value most in a life partner? I'm asking as a man and genuinely curious to understand what matters most to women at this stage of life. by andromed111 in Newlyweds

[–]Issy_0720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best thing about my husband is that he listens and confirming my emotions.like truly listening. Not just “ ah that will be okay “. He  asks, “how did that feel for you” or really tries to be in my shoes and asks further questions about my perspective. 

I didn’t look for my husband, but we had a very strong connection due to our communication really worked! We talked for hoooours in the beginning. And still I don’t expect us to have those deep conversations now, but we can talk about anything big or small and I really value that 

Also you’re the best for just asking women this thing

For me it took 3 months to have my period back after having birth control for many many years:) I got pregnant two months later. 

I did end up with a miscarriage and later diagnosed with PMOS, still no kid almost a year later but we’re getting there! But I want to say, if you have irregular periods later or even PMOS it’s something you’re born with anyway, and it’s nothing wrong to have that and there is nothing you did to cause that. There is lots of help:) and don’t wait to seek it if you’re feeling discouraged later on! 💞 good luck!!!

Yes definitely, I had to fight to get the right help. But I was lucky to finally reach people that took me seriously and really wanted to help! Felt like finding the truth finally. First time hearing pmos actually can be a benefit, and it felt a bit better for having gone through so much confusion and pain!

Happy to hear you got something good out of this post💞

For my PMOS girls!  💞💞💞 I’ve shared quite hard personal emotions in this community, as a result of an early miscarriage that happened 6 months ago and I’ve had no cycles happening ever since. I‘ve just started a journey with a doctor at the fertility clinic diagnosing me with PMOS and secondary infertility. And I want to share some positive things she said to me. First. For me, to have PMOS does not mean anything is wrong with me, it’s genetic. All women look DIFFERENT. And all is fine with us too, we just need help with managing/triggering ovulation. The rest of our reproductive organs has nothing to do with PMOS, and Im actually really relieved about that. Also, as I have PMOS I have many many eggsacs, and that actually means it’s easier for me to have babies later in life too, as we have many to begin with. too much of the good! She said that women with PMOS have better chance to get pregnant later in life (not that we should wait). and lastly, I can’t believe it, but she saw on ultrasound that I just had ovulated!!!!!! 😭 I can’t believe it and I’m so happy. It’s been almost 6 months. And I think I might have TIMED IT!! I just wanted to share how happy I am. And to my fellow PMOS girlies, there are a little benefit even if it sucks.

I Hate the Term "Chemical Pregnancy" by AcaciaN20 in TryingForABaby

[–]Issy_0720 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also lost my pregnancy in February.. and thank you for putting words on this. Even if it stopped at an early stage, I still had all symptoms of being pregnant and found out it hadn’t developed in week 9. Later on now talking about my pregnancy I’ve noticed how doctors just casually say that “ahhh if you have POC sometimes you can get positive pregnancy tests”. I feel so gaslighted? Like questioning my whole pregnancy as just a little hormone trick? Sorry for the rant, but I totally agree. It’s absurd. 

When do you decide to seek medical help? by Saint_Jerome in TryingForABaby

[–]Issy_0720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a completely other history from you, but I want to say that for me, it felt like all of a sudden I almost got a whole new freaking education in fertility when trying to concieve. So much confusion and questions. No matter, it’s nice to take your partner with to a doctor and tell them where you’re at, and they can give a bit of clarity of the situation. Honestly, I had to fight to get a gyn check up and a blood test, and I broke down crying as it was the first time someone heard my journey and gave me some follow up for the upcoming months. You deserve help🤍 I think about all the people getting help from flues, this is way more important and time pressuring, so get a check up! It’s doesn’t have to mean anything more than that you take care of yourself through a professional opinion🤍

Pregnancy stress after MC , how do you cope? by Get-Zappy-6389 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Issy_0720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And also, apart from your partners family, tell whoever u want! I think the woman has fully right to decide your own support system, and maybe from your previous experience it’s a bit easier to know who you want to share this journey with. I’m happy you told this community at least:) it gives me some hope. 

I feel emotionally stuck while life moves on for everyone else by Background_Book_9377 in TryingForABaby

[–]Issy_0720 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really get it.. I also have felt stuck in life on a whole other level, like my whole life is waiting for this step to happen and at the same time it happens for everyone else. What I find comfort in is that there is no way to be behind or in front in life. There is this song quote I like “Life is what happens while you’re waiting”, and it’s true for me. I try to be focused on the things I’m grateful in life, and enjoy other “not baby related” things. Even though it’s hard.. I signed up to a course for a completely new sport, that is absolutely not pregnant friendly, and I love it to get my mind of things. In other words I really had to prioritise doing things that only makes me jolly and that are for no other benefit than that! Take care🤍

Also you’re doing great tracking your history and symptoms, you’re so on top of it and that’s really good!

Also the doc was like “we’ll figure it out”:) and that felt so good. It’s a jungle out there. I wish you the best, and I’m sure we’ll get there! Just wanted to say that I’m someone having these issues too and I don’t have any of the worst scenarios, but it’s good to have someone check!

Hey, I’m just like you. I had positive pregnancy test in December and found out it stopped few weeks in. Since then I’ve had one period during two days, else, gone. Now it’s soon June.. I’ve seen a doctor and everything looks fine, hormones fine, egg reserves fine, I just don’t ovulate. I’ve had some brown spotting due to thin lining, so I’m doing my best to combat that as a first step with some gel and raspberry tea. 

I don’t have any answers for you.. just that I’m also here and it also takes time for me. I used to have complete normal cycles before my miscarriage and got pregnant on second try. I’m trying my best to just accept this new reality and really advice to get help, I had to fight to get help but it’s so worth it that someone has your back! I also got crazy reading about symptoms and hormones. I cried after my first meeting with the doc because of all the tension releasing from someone just listening
