feeling old

I'm 25 and still have no children. Can't help feeling like I'm never going to be a mother. My other half and I both have good jobs and have good income and are home owners (bought our first home last year). Just wish I knew when I'm going to have a child instead of worrying that I'm never going to be a mother.

Why do you think you wont be a mother ??? It is extremely rare not to conceive just because of pcos, there is so much help available nowadays anyway if you have issues (not everyone with pcos does though). All I would say is get your body in the best possible shape for when you do want to conceive and make sure your partners is good too as 1/3 of fertility issues are now men.

Also one good thing with pcos is our egg quality remains better for longer so you can conceive later in life. I conceived aged 36 so you have a good 12 years or so before you need to worry about it.

Hi 25 is not old !! I wouldn't worry yet . Some studies say fertility in some pcos ladies can actually increase as they age ( don't know the exact science ).

Don't worry about your age!

I'm 28 in a few days and still haven't been able conceive. I've always had the same feeling-what if I can't be a mother?

Been trying for a year but it hasn't happened yet. My husband and I have an appointment at the fertility clinic tomorrow. Maybe it's a step you could take?

Always opt for some intervention if you think you've been actively trying and it hasn't happened yet.

Hope that helps!
