Emotional experience trying to conceive

Hi,

My partner and I have been together 7 years, after 3 years of been together we decided to try for a baby. I had problems prior to this decisions, which after numerous test etc I was informed I have polycystic ovaries and endometriosis. It's been 4 years now and still no luck. Ive just recently changed my GP as didn't find mine was taking this at all seriously. My partner is really eager to have children and the longer it's taking the more he's assuming it's never going to happen. It's worrying me massively as it's something we're both ready for and really want. No one seems to be listening to my concerns. Is it likely I won't be able to conceive giving the circumstances of my two diagnosis'. Bare in mind my partner has been tested privately and his sperm are healthy.
Thanks in Advance.

I know this does have to be hard considering your diagnoses. But has your Ob suggested any type of fertility treatments?!? My hubby and I started our TTC journey in 2003, by 2006 still no baby. Had testing done and nothing showed why we were not getting pregnant (unexplained fertility) started with 50mg of Clomid, and metformin. No baby. We took a long break, not trying per say and not preventing either. We seemed help again in 2013. My Ob increased meds to 100mg Clomid, and added Estradiol and Progesterone. We got our first ever BFP in 2013. M/C at 7wks pregnant again next natural cycle M/C at 18wks (girl) took a year break pregnant April 2015 ended in m/c at 16wks (boy). Took another break was just a lot to handle mentally emotionally and physically. So here we are April 2016 had HSG done cervix and uterus look great no abnormalities or blockages..... Now it's June and we are trying Clomid again. Currently cd14 and entering my fertile window. Took 100mg Clomid cd 5-9 June 10-14th. So please talk with your Ob about all possibilities, although you've been diagnosed, I've heard of many women still conceiving with the same conditions. I send you all the best a TONS of baby dust!!!!!
