Confused little lady.

Hello ladies I am new here.

I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries when I was 16 and sadly have had two miscarriages since. I'm 24 years old and my partner and I have just bought our first home together and are talking about starting a family but the only problem we have now is I have arthritis in my back and they've suggested we start trying for a baby sooner rather then later as it will spread. I was just wondering if there was anyone that could offer me some advice as unsure on where ever I want to put myself back into a positon where I meant lose another child or be too scared for the rest of my life for something I want more then anything in the world.

Kind regards,

Farley

I would go to a fertility centre, then ask to get surgery and a few tests done, if all else fails IVF would be the way to go.

You could get a surrogate if you don't think you can carry.

Thank you Hannah - you have been very helpful. Do I just speak to my GP about going to a fertility centre?

in reply to farley_x

I think so, or your Gynacologist.

Try to convince your partner to get tested too.

I hope all goes well, keep me posted Xx

My partner wants to get tested as well to make sure he has no problems either. We both want to start a family and scared to think we might not be able too :( I will do. Thank you again for your help xxx

The fertility centre will be able to help, in most cases people aren't infertile from endo either.

Your welcome:)
