Hi,
I suppose you could say I'm new to this thread but I felt an introduction might be best as I probably will need help along the way and I know from other threads that this website is very helpful.
My story so far is I joined slimming world in January 2013 and immediately the weight began to fall off me. As I have PCOS too the weight affected this too in a positive light (my periods became regular the more weight I lost). DH and I felt that summer last year was a good time to ttc and that began in July last year. At that stage I had over 2st lost. While we never got pregnant then, we came very close at one stage and last November I ovulated for the first time ever but no pregnancy followed :sigh:
We had booked a holiday of a lifetime to New Zealand and Australia so we decided to forget about ttc until we came back from holidays and so that is what we done. Before we left for our holiday, I had bloods taken and while they were at the back of my head I never really thought about them until I got the results back and found out that the ratio of FSH:LH was almost 2:1 this was perfect as this had never happened before so you can imagine I was totally elated.
We have since started ttc again (I took 14 femara - 7 day 2 and 7 day 3) and I'm waiting for the cm to finish in order to get bloods done and see if I have ovulated. I have another problem though, I have no fallopian tube on my left side and my left ovary is not in its proper place so he said last July that if I ovulated then he would consider surgery to remove this left ovary and this is scheduled on the 2nd April (unless of course I do get pregnant this month).
The next week or two will be crucial and I'm hoping that the little bit more weight I have lost since November (I gained 13.5Ibs on holidays and I have lost 12.5Ibs of that in a month). He is optimistic that I might actually ovulate myself naturally and he said definitely it was the weight that helped this for sure.
I'm hoping I will be posting a thread announcing some wonderful and very exciting news in the future (hopefully not too far away)
