Sad and confused.. Do I want a divorce or is it just pcos depression

Me and my husband have been trying to conceive for over a year. I just found out in sept that I have pcos my doc put me on prevera and then when I strayed metformin I got my period te next day sept 24- oct 2 so now it's time for my period to come again and I hasn't I'm 7 days late. I've been so depressed and my husband isn't helpin AT ALL he seems to be making things worse we fight all the time and he seem to not care at all about me having pcos he hasn't put in any effort to look it up, ask me how I'm feeling or anything. We will have been married a year in Jan and I'm about ready to call it quits. This is my second marriage so I'm trying not to give up. I'm sooooo depressed.....I'm going to take a pregnancy test on the 2nd so we will see if I'm actaully just having mood swings.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Having PCOS is traumatic for any woman,  and yes, there are very serious mood swings, i would suggest, instead of expecting your hubby to look it up, try and involve him, let him know the things you find out, send him e-mail, like look what i found, and talk to him about how he feels. It may be traumatic for him too.

Pcos, thankfully can be managed, with adequate medication and professional help but you have to stick with it though, cos it doesnt go away, and concieving with pcos takes a bit of work for some women.

If you want to see a councillor, thats a step in the right direction, but in immediate terms, try not to feel overwhelmed by what you read about pcos, trust me, i know.

Bottom line is, you have been diagnosed, and you are on medication and with God all things are possible. All the best. xx

I guess I'd talk to a counselor.  Medical issues (like dealing with PCOS) get so much harder when trying to conceive, since the hormones run wild.  Maybe you're asking too much of your husband and maybe you aren't, a dispassionate counselor would be helpful to you in working it all out.
