Anyone TTC with hormonal issues?

by JoyRenee, Mar 10, 2008 10:28PM
I doubt anyone follows my story, so a little background---a recent hormone level test revealed I have a higher level of testosterone than normal women (can cause you to not ovulate). Anyone else TTC with PCOS or other hormonal issues???

Im sorry to hear about your condition! That has to make TTC hard im sure! I dont think any of the regular ladies have any issues , but we all had our difficulties in TTC....Are you on any fertility drugs to help you ovulate?

hi there. i also was diagnosed with higher level of testosterone and POCS before i conceived my first 6 years ago. i think both issues are related. i went on 1 course of drugs that help regulate ovulation as i was hardly ever ovulating. and after 1 course i was pregnant. after my first my periods became regular again and i have conceived 2 more completely naturally within 7 months of trying. any questions feel free to ask and goodluck!

Thanks ladies! I had a sonogram today but my doc will interpret them and diagnose March 21st.

I am not currently taking any medication until my doctor diagnoses me.

I've been pregnant 3 times (one was m/c in between the pregnancies with my girls). The sonographer didn't tell me if I was ovulating or not, so I guess I'll just have to wait. I'm still taking a test on the 19th though!!!
