Symptoms;

- Tiny hair grow on my jaw, nipple and tommy.

Fertility Journey

- 2 natural Ectopic pregnancy (No Tubes again)

Just some thoughts from a fellow PCOS..have you had blood tests to understand your LH/ FSH ratio on day 2/3? Testosterone levels. Fasting insulin test. Thyroid hormones. Balancing any of those hormones that are out of range can help restore ovulation. Esp if you have insulin resistance then myoinositol supplements can be helpful for that, as well as a diet lower in sugar and refined carbs to keep insulin in balance. I have used herbal remedies from a naturopath in the past that have completely changed my cycles! Happy to send you more info if you’d like xx

Thank you so much @Ytrewq123.

I guess I have to search my test record to know which of the hormone is out of proportion or redo the hormone test.

I will definitely PRIVATE CHART you when I get hold of those details.

Hi Fauzytt. Your BMI is perfect. Your GP could prescribe metformin for you to help. If he/she does, then ask for the slow release sort so you don’t get bowel upsets. It’s a good starting point and may do the trick. Check your thyroid levels are at the correct level for fertility too. Good luck. Diane
