Any chance of conceiving?

I'm a 16 year old girl and I was just diagnosed with PCOS.
I haven't had a period since December '10 (it is currently October '11), and I was just wondering if there are any stories of women with PCOS conceiving naturally, without the use of medication?

Thanks x

Hi, I was diagnosed with PCOS at 17.  I am now 34 and have 2 children. My PCOS was severe and I was told that conceiving naturally would be difficult.  That information was correct however, I got a really great fertility expert and with his help, some meds and an ovarian diathermy I have 2 beautiful children.  I am ok with having used meds and going through surgery and I am so grateful that they know so much about this syndrome and can help.  It took a few years and at times was difficult but I wouldn't change it.

It will all be ok xxx

Yes Please get on the Pill to keep your period regular!
Go to the Gyno every year for blood work and your yearly visit!

There are chances you will be able to conceive without drugs (later in your life)

Not to scare you, I was also diagnosed young, did get on the pill at 16, kept up with my doc apt.

I will off the pill in 2006 to try to have a baby......fast forward 5 years and I am now 30 and still cannot conceive and drugs have not worked! I am also not back on the pill because years of being off and not having very many periods has caused me to have a thick uterine lining and a uterine polyp, which I have to have removed and biopsied (pre - cancerous)....Staying on the pill this whole time would have prevented me from this!

Stay on the pill so that when your ready (older) you can talk to your doc and he can do some blood work and other testing before you go off the pill!

Definitly to lots of research on PCOS and ways to help with symptoms!
