Hi all,
Just want to share my experience and encourage all the ladies out there who are recently diagnosed with PCOS. Keep you spirits up because its not the end of the world!
I was diagnosed with PCOS in my early twenties and was put on birth control pills (Diana-30 and Jasmine) to regulate the menstruation. I only stared consulting fertility specialists at KKH after trying to conceive for 2 years without success.
I was put on 3 cycles of Clomid. The first 2 cycles were negative and at that point the doctors recommended SO-IUI to speed things up as my husband and I did not want to waste any more time. So we made appointment and did the paper work to start SO-IUI. We were really stressed out at this point so we decided to take a short vacation just to relax and try to enjoy each other's company again. I still have one more cycle of Clomid left at this point, so I just took it so as not to waste the medication.
My period did not come the next month, and I was already due to start the medications and procedure for SO-IUI. We were really nervous and thought something was wrong so we did a pregnancy test at home and it was POSITIVE! We went down to KKH to seek verification, and it actually happened to be the day that I was scheduled for SO-IUI. Our beautiful little girl is now 3 months. She is happy and growing day by day.
Ladies out there: It is very stressful to try and conceive, knowing that you have fertility issues. Sex can become stressful and no longer enjoyable. Do try to relax and enjoy your spouse's company. The body is at its best when it is at a relaxed stage. We sincerely believed that the short holiday we took helped greatly in our pro-creation efforts.
Don't give up hope and continue in your efforts! Good luck to all the PCOS ladies out there!

Just to share with u all... I am a PCOS since my teenage age... I think when I was 15. Then it didn't really bother me till I got engage n got married.
I tried all sort of medication... be it tcm or western ones... it's all causes a lot of other problem. There is once in kkh I took a medication n I was hospitalised due to liver problem...
After that, I stopped working and stay at home for 3 months. To my surprise, I was pregnant. For the 3 months where i am not working, i do exercise to loss some weight. Try to relax n just enjoy the days where u n ur hubby have...
