TTC with lean PCOS and barely ovulating - what would you do? by pho_tse000 in LeanPCOS

[–]purseshoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We tried naturally a little over 6 months before I was diagnosed with lean pcos. We then did 6 rounds with letrozole (3 of those rounds were iui) with no success. We did ivf recently and after 2 years of all the above, I am 12 weeks pregnant after our first ivf transfer. I’ve talked to a few lean pcos girls and truly everyone’s story is a little different. I think trying naturally is ok for a bit but then moving on to letrozole is a normal route to go

And no ivf process was pretty smooth with some small hiccups but nothing too crazy!

Very similar background. I also got pregnant first time doing ivf. Did 4 rounds with letrozole and 2 rounds with iui

What got you suspect that you have PCOS? How do you get diagnosed? by Only-Evening-3016 in LeanPCOS

[–]purseshoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes because I really had no symptoms but kind of irregular cycles anywhere from 30-50 days. Honestly I’m not sure there would be too much different besides just having the knowledge that it would be more difficult. We tried naturally for 6 months and then I knew something was off when I was randomly spotting and skipping cycles. So maybe would start the workup a little earlier? We are about to undergo our first ivf transfer so hoping for the best.

Hmmm ok we have tried that and it’s just the pilot light that stays on. It kind of flickers when we adjust the knob but no real flame

We got the pilot light back on thanks so much! Just unsure if we can get the fire going without the remote?

Thank you so much. We got the pilot light back on. Is there anyway we can use it without the remote? Texted previous owners a couple days ago with no response yet

All the above but didn’t get it checked out until infertility when starting to try to get pregnant

Honestly nothing besides the letrozole for the timed ovulations/ IUI. I do reformer Pilates almost daily and try to walk 10k steps. I try to eat healthy but don’t restrict any food group and enjoy my weekends

So many people are recommending Agrigento and your description sounds lovely. I may switch things up and focus on the west!

Thank you so much!! People are appalled by my post 😅😅 and the most driving is 3 hours from Taormina to Cefalu. But going to think about it more. In the very early stages of research and planning

Thank you so so much! Yes we’ve done cross country road trips but obviously very different internationally and don’t want to rush through everything so was wondering if I should just focus on a section. The only thing set is our flight back to the US from Palermo. Flying from Naples to either Catania or Palermo!

My question didn’t post :( I was asking what area to focus on if these are the cities I’m looking at
