Any info is appreciated...

I have a son that is almost 18 months and would like to try to get pregnant in about 4 to 6 months from now.  I have endometriosis and PCOS.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what extra preparations I can do to get ready?  Are there any special vitamins (other than penatal), diet, exercise, or anything else that I can do to help my chances???

Hey.
I would be careful about taking glucopahge. my doc took me off it cos he thought it might acctually cause the onset of diabities...

Did your doctor try Glucophage for your PCOS to aid in getting pregnant?  My friend had a little boy and tried for 2 years to get pregnant.  She had PCOS and finally she found a doctor that said to try Glucophage(a diabetic medication). She was pregnant within 2 months of being on the medication.  Good luck!!

I have often wondered about the glucophage, but the only thing I am afraid of is that my blood sugar has a tendency to drop (sometimes in the 30's) so I was concerned that it might make it drop more often or even lower.

Definatly chart your bbt. it made conceiving #3 a lot faster than baby #2 for me. I also used ovulation predictors bought online at saveontests.com which were way cheaper than buying from the store.

You should start charting your temps.  I chart mine at fertility friend it's a real help and it's free!

I also recommend the book: Taking Charge of Your Fertility: The Definitive Guide to Natural Birth Control, Pregnancy Achievement, and Reproductive Health

I was surprised how little I really know about my cycle until I read this book.  I got my on Amazon.com for about $17.

This site has a "fertility recipe".  I take it but I don't have PCOS.
