I am just wondering if there is someone(s) who might have some advice, guidance, or same experience that could help guide me and give me hope. I am a 30 year old female who has always wanted to be a mother; however, I'm starting to wonder if that is possible. I still remember the first day I started menstrating. It was exactly on my 13th birthday. For years I had cycles every month but I just wouldn't know what time of the month I would have them bc they never started the same time each month. At the age of 18 I started taking birth control pills and it didn't not change the pattern or number of cycles. At the age of 23 after getting married I decided to stop the birth control meds because my husband and I wanted to start a family. After stopping the pill so did my periods. After 4 months with no periods and was obviously not pregnant I went to a ob/gyn doc who told me I have polycystic ovarian syndrome. He started me on metaphormin and went on a diet bc at the time I was over weight. My periods came and go and I was not very good about taking the medication bc it gave me severe diaherria so I do admitt I did not take them as often as I should. I got so depressed from not being able to become pregnant I decided to put it on the back burner and concentrated on getting my weight down. To try not to talk u to death in short I had the gastric bypass surgery and believe it or not I had a period the day of the surgery after almost a year of not having one. Since the surgery, which I have done well with, I had a period every month and about 1 1/2 yrs post decided to try to get pregnant again only to find out I was not ovulating. I was given chlomid and tried that for 4 months. I only ovulated once in that period. After that I decided to stop bc for one I got hired as a teacher and two was getting depressed It didn't seem to be happening. Now here we almost a year later and post op of 3 weeks from gallbladder it is now may and I have not had a period since Jan? Could it still be pcos? I do want to try to become pregnant this summer but what is the best way I should go? Should I try chlomid again, metaphormin? I just really need some advice bcci don't want to go through months of disappointment again and I refuse to believe I was not meant to have children so any advice would be great and thank u for it in advance and I apologize for being long winded.
