Diagnosed

Today I was diagnosed with PCOS or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. It's disheartening because it has been confirmed that I am having issues getting pregnant. I assumed as much because my husband and I have been trying and have not gotten preggers yet. I saw a doctor at the Reproductive Science Center in San Jose. He seems a bit eccentric but otherwise very knowledgeable. I like his approach to fertility issues. He emphasizes the positive in everything. He told me not to worry even though I have been diagnosed. He wants to do some more blood work to check my hormone levels and he also wants to do a semen analysis on my husband. As of right now he believes that a few cycles of Clomid or some other fertility medication may do the trick. I hope so. We tried 1 cycle of Clomid 50mg in the past and obviously that didn't work because I don't have a baby! Tricare Prime covers the diagnosis and treatment of fertility issues but does not cover procedures such as IVF. So, for now I am going to do research on PCOS and find out what this means for my future aside from ttc (trying to conceive). I have completed some preliminary research and came across some great websites. Wish me luck.
