Hi everyone,

I'm new here, and I think I am going to vent more than anything else, so please bear with me. I've been a "lurker" for a while, but now I think things are starting to come to reality.

DH and I haven't been ttc for all that long, 8 months now. I was just dx w/ PCOS (explains my long annovulatory cycles - I have yet to ovulate) and I am starting Clomid treatment (well I started last cycle, but it doesn't appear to be working yet. Currently on CD 23 and no sign of any eggs yet! - But I am hopeful! )
DH and I agreed a long time ago we would pursue this up to IVF or IUI, anything considered "intrusive" - personal choice, we have nothing against it!!!

A huge huge part of me wants to throw Clomid, HCG shots and all infertility treatments out the door and begin adoption proceedings. DH is OK to start looking into it now, but he wants to pursue the clomid and if necessary HCG shots as well. He says he is afraid I would regret not pursuing this further, but in my heart, I don't know if I can handle month after month of nothing when I know adoption would one day bring us closer to having our family. (my ultimate goal is to be a mommy, to parent, not to be pregnant)

So my question is, have any of you dx w/ PCOS decided against further infertility treatments or are you considering it after not going forward with IF treatments? Or am I just going through a minor "just dx and don't know what to do" phase?

Thanks!

Becky
