had 2nd blood test results ...

[Gem & Leland]

and now im confused !

the LH hormone that was high 2 months ago and present when you have pcos was normal

but my progesterone was normal too when it should have been high if i ovulated

so , i deffo havent ovulated the last 2 months and just have to wait for the scan results to see if i have cysts or not

but if i havent got pcos (sstill think i have ...so many symptons) then why arent i ovulating !

docs said have month 3 blood tests (more loverlY) and scan results she will look into putting me on meds to make me ovulate !



why isnt my body the same every months lol

 

[Fingers crossed]

Hhmm, maybe you have PCO and not PCOS then. Pyscofalcon may be able to give you more info on that. Hope all works out for you

Sorry been away (had migraines)

PCO is Polycystic Ovirys. Basically cysts on ovariys from under-developed eggs and can be a short term problem (hence you DO OV sometimes - just irregular)

I have that and only OV every other month. If I do OV 2 months in a row I can go 3 to 4 months before OVing again.

PCOS is the Syndrome which is more long term and has hormones and other factors involved like gloucose.

Also you can be PCO free but still not OV as your body thinks your not ready to (think on depo or pre puberty) and this will show in blood work but scans will be clear.

If so then more blood work will be needed to find out exactly why (can be something as simple as your thyroids or chemical balance)

Hope this helps.

Hi , thanks for that , have had thyroid done and that was clear ! im on my 3rd consetive blood test this month and had my ultrasound and internal scan last mon

the main thing why i think ive got pcos part from the hard work concieving is ove put on over 2 stone in 10 months without changing my diet and ive got worse skin now then i did in pubity ! ive also managed to grow my hair fairly long in under a year , not sure if this also a symton or not ( hair growth) !


i did fall pregnant last year (april 05) and this was by one accident (wasnt ttc then) so i can pin point exatly when i concieved , which i suppose is why im confused to know having problems only 18 months later !

It's strange there doing 1 blood test at a time.

I've had all 13 tests done at the same time (1 pint of blood in 7 vials!) and just waiting for the results.

Just 1 to 2 weeks left to find out.

I've been tested for everything from Thyroid and Diabetes to Testoterone

My legs are like a forest. Given up shaving em cos just makes em grow back quicker. I also have a tash I do have a bulging belly and put on weight and can't get rid of it too even tho upped exercise and gone on a diet. Keep getting spots too so I look like a teenager

So you might have PCO as they only show up in certain times of your cycle on a scan unlike PCOS which are always there.

I'll post my results when I get them

 

[Gem & Leland]

no the first month i did have all of them done ! god knows how many bottles / tube things they took !

now each month im just having lh , progesterone etc , the ones that arent making sense !

 

[PyscoFalcon]

Gotcha!
That is frustrating Hope they find out what's going on soon.

Hi GM3

I have had a lot of the same tests over the past 2 years - internal ultra sound, every type of blood test, CT scan, etc mainly to find out why I was putting on weight despite diet and exercise. They were all negative so never got to the bottom of it. I had a couple of day 21 progesterone checks which both said I wasn't ovulating. I started self medicating by taking 100mg vit b6 and 4 evening primrose capsules (up until ovulation) as both of these are suposed to help regulate hormones. I also took "magic medicine" and the first month of trying all three i got bfp. Doctor was astonded as I had had progesterone test the same month and it was 5 - should be 30 to confirm ovulation but they tested at the wrong time as I didn't OV until day 23 that month.

Not sure if this is of any use to you at all - most of my investigation was before I was TTC, but I know how frustrating it is to know yourself that there is definatley something not right but because the doctors only work on absolutes with test results you can't get to the bottom of it. You aren't alone

Anyway - apologies for the long post. I hope you get some good news soon

I went through all the fertility tests...I guess the way i looked at it was it was another month closer to the answer...

good luck with the tests
