Hahahahaha.....was the pain that much?probably the sonographer had little or no expertise in handling HSG.The first one I did was very discomforting,and painful but not excruciating,took painkiller and antibiotics after the procedure and that was it.The 2nd one...no pains,even walked home afterwards,unlike the first that dh had to come and pick me home.I think you should check a better laboratory, cos you need to rule out blocked tubes,to know exactly what issues to tackle in ttc

Thank u @Mumihaja

Pls wat kind of test do I need 2 do 2 know weda I hv PCOS? Av been suspecting ds 4 a long time because am hairy n hv neva noticed ov (EWCM) so don't know if my follicle evn ruptures at all, my af is consistent only its slightly irregular. My doc ignored my suspicions, says its natural bt I am going behind him ds time.

D last tym I did a scan dia were dominant follicles of 23mm n 19mm left n right, my uterus n ovaries were normal, POD intact, no adhesions so all was ok bt still nothing happened, what bothers me was dt I took clomid dt month. Dunno if d clomid coverd up PCOs or any abnormality. Did it?

Pls mamas wt PCOS experience help my confusion. Thnks. Sorry 4 d long writeup.

@ miraclefromGod:- BMI is calculated as weight divided by height in metres square for example someone who weighs 72kg and is 1.61 m or 161cm in height, you will calculate it this way 72/1.61 x 1.61, that is 72/2.5921= 27.77 approximately 28 which is overweight

@ Icesnow:- Nothing to worry about concerning the 2mm fibroids. They cannot stop you from conceiving. For now avoid folic acid because it helps tumours grow and uterine fibroids are tumours. Meanwhile has your hubby done his SFA?

Please go for another scan in a new cycle to confirm, don't just rely on this one alone. You might be ovulating just that it might be a poor Ovulation and the Egg is not usually God enough. With that said,

My Dear Sis, you're not alone. That's also the Drs report for me : PCOS, Hormonal Imbalance and High Prolactin (Lacting Boobs / Galactorrhea). My Dr told me that cysts are caused by hormonal imbalance and that once the hormones are balanced, the cysts get resolved. For PCOS it can be managed through balancing the hormones and using Ovulation induction drugs. There are several drugs and supplements for this. Different Drs use different protocols. Some combine drugs with supplements like inositol, Omega 3,6 & 9.

One of the ways of managing PCOS is by changing your diet to a low Carbohydrates diet, loosing weight if you're a fat/overweight cyster. My pcos and hormonal imbalance has gotten better since I lost weight. There are some women who are slim (thin cysters) but still have PCOS, it's still beneficial that they go on a low carb diet and eat healthy, in their case weight loss is not needed.

High Prolactin and leaking Boobs have been discussed recently with lots of home remedies and Orthodox remedies. You can go with any of it. My Dr prescribed Dostinex 1 tablet same day each week for the leaky Boobs. Then Omega 3 & 6 which can be safely taken throughout the cycle for hormonal imbalance. He said he might have to give me Ovulation drugs when we get back to ttc again (still on Myomectomy recovery). He said it depends on the status of my labs. He might also do Ovulation drugs for me because I told him I want to ttc twins but all will be dependent on my lab status then. He said pcos women have the tendency of releasing multiple eggs especially when given a little help so care needs to be taken in given the help to avoid 4,5,6 ... babies in one pregnancy. Am praying for twins but won't even mind Triplets sef.

All you've stated is no big deal according to my Dr, they're easily treated and managed for a woman to conceive and have children. Your Dr just needs to work with you and with God everything will work out fine so don't be bothered so much, just be bothered enough to take the right action, hope you get my drift.

Also note that some PCOS women get pregnant without the Drs help just by making lifestyle changes to their diets, drinking lots of water throughout the day, exercising and all which helps balance the hormones and takes care of the PCOS. Besides God works directly too just as he also works through Drs.

I'll suggest you visit this site for women with PCOS, I've found information there and women's experiences there very useful. I always discuss what I learn there with my Dr and he seems to agree with most. The website is www.soulcysters.net
It is well, we shall get our bfps this year, Amen. Take care and God bless.
