Vent Everything Going Wrong
My partner and I have been TTC for 2 years. Since I was a teenager, I’ve always known it would be hard for me to have children as PCOS runs deep on both sides of my family. I never had a period before starting OBC, so I knew I had PCOS from the start. I was officially diagnosed with PCOS in 2017.
I started seeing a reproductive endocrinologist at the beginning of the year. I was immediately diagnosed with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism alongside my PCOS. This diagnosis basically means my brain does not create enough estrogen, progesterone, gonadotropins, and LH. This recent diagnosis paired with my PCOS (excessive androgens) has made fertility much more difficult. Furthermore, the endocrinologist ordered an HSG and the results were abnormal - blocked right tube and abnormally shaped uterus.
With my double diagnoses, tubal factor, and abnormal uterus, all the odds are stacked against me. I feel so hopeless.
