I am 24 years old, and I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2010. At first, I was in denial because I didn’t want to accept the fact that I will have trouble having kids because I have always wanted to be a mom. It really hurt me to say the least. My husband and I started trying to have children a year later, and that’s when I started to take a more active approach to dealing with my PCOS. I finally accepted the diagnosis and decided to go to the doctor. I had my fair share of finding the right doctor to treat me. One doctor wouldn’t help me until I’d lost 60 ponds. So obviously, I quit seeing him.
Just as I found a doctor I loved, he decided to leave and go somewhere else. I felt frustrated. I am looking at a new doctor finally, and I hope and pray that he can help me. Since being diagnosed with PCOS, I have done nothing but struggle to find treatments for PCOS. I have also struggled emotionally. Thank God that I have a wonderful husband to help me through it all. I don’t know where I would be without him. I wish all the ladies out there as much luck to help them with PCOS. I don’t wish this on anyone.
