PCOS - better or worse after #1?

Hey there all,

Really didn't know where to put this but thought here might be the best option as not actually TTC at the mo.

I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2006 and concieved my DS in 2007 within the first month of trying. Before I had DS my cycles were 28 days and was ovulating every 2nd month.

Since having DS my cycles have been 26 -33 days long at the moment am on day 33 with no signs of AF turning up. My acne and weight have got worse since he was born also.

Has anyone else found that its good worse after conceiving #1? What are my options from here. My Dr was ok about it but not great esp because we concieved o quickly but would love to get regular cycles and other symptoms under control.

TIA

ur lucky u get ur periods at all, i dont, ive had 3 natural periods in my lifetime. I have pcos. Im 21.

But just cos I am getting periods doesn't actually mean that i am ovulating. Use to ovulate every second month and am not even sure I am doing that now

Thats true I guess is any1 a slim pcos here?

Hey, I have PCOS too... Slim PCOS... so not the norm (is there a norm?). Hate the bad skin and the hair loss!   

Took me over a year to conceive..... Never had a normal period in my whole life, always just thought that was me, until went to Fertility Associates to see why I wasn't getting pregnant. Its a weird feeling, wanting nothing to be wrong, but wanting something to be wrong so you had answer to the 'why not pregnant' question.

For all those trying to conceive out there, big hugs. Its a scary and sometimes lonely time, especially when it feels noone understands what its like... and you do get sick of being told "it will happen". But chin up, the specialists are amazing now, and technology is awesome. Hope is something we always have.

mine got worse after i had jack......put on a little weight and AF was alot heavier and more painful when it returned. my endo pain also returned about 12mths after i had jack.

still, both my kids were conceived pretty much the first night of TTC.......since having charli, i lost 10kgs just by having her, but half of that is back and i can't shift it.....my AF has been painful the past couple of months and i'm not due for 2wks but am having horrible cramps yesterday and today

i'm not a 'slim' PCOS person, but i'm not heavy either....i'm a sz14/16

Yeah well funnily enough, I did 3 cycles of clomiphene with no luck, so FA decided to do surgery have a look around and also do ovarian drilling while they were in there. In the mean time I was to continue with clomiphene until my name came up on public waiting list (oh the joys). So I pretty much resigned myself to the fact that nothing would happen until I had the surgery...... and I conceived while I was waiting.
Its all crap though, everyone tells you 'not to think about' or 'not to worry', but hell, when its happening to you its all you think about!!! And 90% of the time the people telling you all that, already have kids and have NO idea how it feels!
Haha.   Kind of ironic really!!!
