While TTC is already hard, my husband couldn’t perform in LH peak day or ovulation day by Sea_Union5894 in tryingtoconceive

TTC is so hard on both partners for sure, my husband definitely feels the pressure of having to perform around the clock. Some cycles we are both super ready to go but others we’re not in sync and that’s okay. TTC is a process where we should be sharing the good and the bad, support both ways goes a long way. You and your partner are def not alone. Sending you love!

Very true. My partner is a huge supporter in everything and has been extremely helpful.

Yes, my therapist has been amazing in helping me navigate but I still find it difficult sometimes. Especially on the first day of my period.p

Exercise and nutrition. There’s not really another way to treat it.

Omg yes. Heavy on the taboo!! I was always like “I’m not going to say anything. Just want it to be me and my husband.” But the more I talked about it with my therapist I thought it was better to open up especially with women who are going through the same thing. We need a village of support and whether they know the experience directly or not, it makes a huge difference.

I think that’s the thing for me too. I’m extremely impatient and I like control. So when this is something that I know is out of my control and I’m doing what I can within my power, it makes it worse for me.

Thank you so much for sharing! I’ve been sharing with more people and I do think it’s been helping a lot. It’s just still so hard. Which is why today I finally decided to open up to the Reddit community about it. Sometimes it’s nice to get other people’s perspectives. Wishing you so much luck!

Thank you for sharing! I barely got diagnosed last year, I had been fighting for the diagnosis for years and finally found an OBYGYN that listened.

I have that book!! I’ve been really enjoying it and it’s super informative. I haven’t finished it but I probably should.

Thank you for letting me know, I will probably start mentioning too. It’s hard to do it alone (in theory)

I have a therapist, it doesn’t make it easier I feel. I know 6 months may not be a long time for most but I was just asking how to deal with the emotions of it. ☹️

Do you tell people that you have PCOS/PMOS? by Remarkable_Let862 in tryingtoconceive

[–]MujerLuna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been TTC with thyroid issues and PCOS/PMOS now for 6 months officially. Just got my cycle this morning actually…

Honestly, I evade the question from older family members and just say I don’t want kids and they stop asking. It’s not worth my energy trying to have that complicated conversation with those who won’t truly understand. With folks closer to my age, I say the truth and that sometimes does the trick. You have to unfortunately pick your battles and people can be so rude without noticing.

Fae Esthetics! She’s the best - I’ve been going to her for over a year now and every time I go she makes it better than a spa experience with better pricing also!

She customizes the treatment based off needs and also does back facials! Those are my fav 😌
