I don't know how to comment without replying to someone but here's my story.... Diagnosed PCOS and insulin resitence yrs ago when I was I think early 20's I'm 36 now. Was told id never get pregnant or be able to carry. In 2010 my Dr put me on Metformin for PCOS, within 3 weeks I was pg. Tested positive at 5 weeks. My pregnancy was high risk and I had gestational diabetes but I got an ultrasound every 3 weeks which was nice to see my baby so often. I now have a beautiful 2 yr old boy. Well the last 5 mos my periods have been crazy ( I've ALWAYS been normal) I have taken 10 hpts all negative. My stomach is swollen,my breast are sore and I feel constant movement. I'm going to the Dr next week and beg for an ultrasound. If I am id be 25 weeks( haven't had sex since july..shhhhh....) I'm worried because I was so high risk last time. I don't have insurance but I've been to the ER a few times and they won't even test me. I've never been so scared before. I honestly try to just not think about it but its hard when somethings constantly kicking the sh*t out of you. Good luck ladies

I am 18 years old. I was recently diagnosed wit PCOS about two months ago. But when i was 16 i had My son. My periods have been irregular for the past five months but recently i had unprotected sex and i have yet to get my period, my breast are swollen/sore and i have been feeling very sick at my stomach the last couple of days. I took two pregnancy test and they both had a faint positive. Could i be pregnant? does the faint positive mean i am going to have a miscarriage?

I really need help!

I had been on the implant for two years and had it removed at the end of july, I have PCOS, am 22 and havent had a period now for roughly 3 years if not longer and have never had a proper cycle. Recently I started suffering from small strange changes/symptons like tiredness, heartburn and slight body changes.

Well I have done 2 hpts and 2 tests at a family clinic and all have come back negative. But since friday I have been hit by tons of symptons and everyone I ask even thinks i am pregnant and so do I. I've had practically every sympton u can think of:

Nausea, abdomible pain, sore and tender nipples, butterflies, lower back ache, cravings, sensitive to smells of food and more. I've just had one of the tests at a family planning centre today but that was negative and she said that if i were pregnant it would have said no matter what. But I dont believe her, its not in my head, I wasn't even trying for a child and all of a sudden I've been hit with all these symptons in a week. I'm fighting now to get into the doctors but getin an appointment is near impossible. Im positive that im pregnant, ive never felt like this before and i only found out that my symptons matched pregnancy symptons after looking it up, so its not some fantasy in my head.

I need advice, is this possible? could i b pregnant even with negatives and no period for years? Does anyone here believe me caus i feel like im bangin my head on a brick wall!

If you don't have your periods, you're most likely not ovulating, which means you can't get pregnant. I would suggest seeing a doc to get on Metformin. I had no cycle for 6 months, then spotting for 6 months. Finally broke down and saw the doc for another 'script of metformin. Two months later, I started cramping like crazy, but still only spotting. Then started passing clots, but still, no real blood. A day or so after the clots appeared, I started to bleed heavily. It hurt to use a tampon, and I had to change my pad 4 times in an hour. Severe cramps followed, as well as horribly huge blood clots. After speaking with my Doctor, we think all of the clots was from my lining. When you have a menstrual cycle, you shed your lining every month. A woman with PCOS doesn't neccessarily do this, so after several months this caused severe cramping and bleed. After about a week, all gone, no spotting, no blood, no cramps, no clots. After 6 months, it was a relief. Now at 50 days from the start of the purge. I expected to normalize, so I thought maybe pregnancy. Took a test and it's negative, but after reading this thread, I'm thinking if it doesn't show up in a few weeks, I may test again. Then again, I've gone an entire year without a cycle - no spotting or anything - so it could be just another day in the life of a woman with PCOS.

Ok so still havent been able to get a doctor to do an ultrasound on me. I tried to get my besties doctor to do it for me when she went in for her check up, but she went without me...Thinking about taking another hpt in the morning. If I am I would be about 21-23 weeks plus I think I'm starting to feel some serious kicking! Fingers crossed...

I'm in the same boat as all of you but no one seems to get an answer. It's really upsetting because a) I'm all on my own going through this and b) I just have this feeling that I am but the test that i took first thing this morning was negative. I have sore boobs, a weird sensation in my lower abdomin, light headed even when laying down, super tired, mild cramping, heavy feeling down below, constant urination, headaches, funny taste in my mouth and restless sleep. Could all this really be a lead up to a period? Last period was October and had unprotected sex on the 23rd December. Four weeks ago today. Is it too soon to get a BFP? Has anyone had a similar situation? Oh...and i have very irregular periods but i have been charting and my next one is due on 7th feb. its like a 4 month cycle. Whilst charting, the particular app that i use showed my ovulation dates and the date i had sex was a week after my highest fertility date. Do i need to wait until i've missed my next period to test? Sorry for waffling but its driving me insane!! Help guys, please!

Yes there is still a chance. With PCOS, even without a period you can still ovulate. I know it sounds crazy but, it is true. Keep trying to get to the doctor.

So the hpt i took came back neg. ...my job requires a lot if walking and up and down stair walking...well about 5 days ago i had a whole block if houses with two flights of steps. i started feeling slight pain and later that day noticed pink wen i wiped. after the 3 day of this light bleeding i made up my mind to go to the er. yesterday i went in and told them i was having a miscarriage. the did a quick ultrasound after i explained my story and they told me my uterus was empty ....but comented that i had a big bladder...idk wat that means and i couldnt see the screen because i was laying across two chairs they didnt have any bed. i still feel slight movements but im trying to forget about it if i am i will have my baby around may i mean is it possible that he wouldnt show up in an ultrasound??

I don't think you are any better at giving advice. These kinds of things happen. I have Pcos and I think I know what I am talking about. You can have a false negative! it is possible. Always consult a doctor. Not someone on the internet. Every pregnancy is different !

I couldnt see how to post without doing it as a reply- I have PCOS and hypo thyroid- I don't get a reg period.. I did have one in mid december- then for the past week i been having on and off again cramps but no period- breast are sore and getting major heartburn.. been having mood swings and cravings.. did't think much of it till recently. took a hpt but the line never made it to the control window! but after reading all the false negatives on here  i wonder if I should bother- I have no insurance so havent see a doctor yet- It's so frustrating cause with the thyroid issues I am fatigued already-  Too many symptoms are the same- I usually dont cramp on and off like this- or have such bad heart burn. I do have a son who is almost 18 yrs old- So I can get pregnant.. well I did then anyway lol. Im a smoker so I quit just incase. Talk about incentive! But if I am prego I dont know for how long and worried that I was smoking. I just feel so crazy- Ive been super nauseous too- Could be stress though. I was really sure I was about to get AF though then the cramps go away they come back and so on- OMG I just got sick! So now I am throwing up.. TMI but i peed myself at the same time.. just incase that happens to anyone else I thought I should share..

hey dear...glad to hear ur success story. i am 28 now and we are TTC since last 3 years with no success. i have changed so many gynaecs but haven't achieved the desired result. i was diagnosed with pcos in november 2009, for which i also visited an endocrinologist who informed i do not have much symptoms of pcos and its just mild pcos. I read dat u got a good doctor in India so if u could please mention the name and address of the same, it would be a great help coz he/she might help me too in achieving my dream, for which now i m almost loosing my hope. thanx in advance for the help. u can mail me at
