[sry05]

Hi all,

I hav been ttc since 1 year and dats wen I was detected with PCOD.Currently I am on medicines for PCOD and hav been on regular periods since three months. This month I had dark brown spotting around my periods which continued for 7 days...remeber it was just spotting....and now after a gap of 3 days my spotting has started all over again and this is now freaking me out....

Please if anyone know what it is help me out...its scaring me out!!

When i was gng thriugh the post i found out that many of them are on glucomet or metformin. I too am suffering from pcos but my doc has never told me to take these medicines. I am consulting him from past 4.5 yrs & have undergone 9 iui's & 2 ivf"s. I would even like to know what shld i do to reduce my weight. Thought i have gained around 6 to 8 kgs aftr my ivf its becmg verry difficult for me to shed this weight. Plz do solve my querly.

Hi, I would advise to ask your doc about these meds and the reason he didn't prescribe them to you. Also, maybe you should get a second opinion?

As for the weight issue, it depends on the kind of food you are eating. I don't know what exactly you eat, but try to stick to general recommendations such as no junk food, no fried dishes, minimum of sugar. It's also important to eat 5 times a day, every meal approximately 300-350 grams. Some mild sport activities would also help. I did all that myself and didn't gain much weight after my IVF cycles. Hope this helps! Good luck to you and loads of baby dust!

Hey. Are you going to an OB or an endocrinologist? In my opinion the latter is much better equipped to handle PCOD. Ask them about the meds you mentioned. They are the standard meds for this condition. I'm surprised you weren't prescribed these. Good luck!

"Yes, I have something to share too

My husband left me when doctors told me that I was infertile (about five years ago). I did not make peace with loneliness, however. I met this new guy and God, he's so caring. He is divorced too. We are marrying next year. We already have planned to go to Europe for surrogacy, a great alternative to natural pregnancy. I have done a lot of research on this. Many people recommended us clinics and I'm having a really hard time on deciding which one would best suit us.

Most of the suggestions are for a clinic in Ukraine. I have also read good reviews about it online. I think we will probably be going there then. Which clinic would you girls recommend?"

Hey, how are you? Do not worry about the dark brown spotting as it is sometimes the sign of vaginal cleaning. Have some patience you will be a mother soon. Consult your doctor. If there is some problem then I think you must ask your doctor about IVF and surrogacy that is the only way you can have your genetic baby.

I'm really confused about this thread. I'm sorry, sry05, you've got to face this. Have never heard about the thing. How did you actually cope with that? What were the dr's suggestions? You must have had more answers by this time I believe. Hope you're feeling better. All the best!
