Hi i am to the board. My name is jennie and i'm from southeast michigan. Here is my pcos story.... I always kind of new something was wrong with me. I never started my period during puberty. Had everything else and finally during the beginning of my senior year of high school my mom took me to my family doctor. She found a few ovarian cysts and started me on bcp. That was it, went on with my life. I became engaged to my hubby in 2006 and decided to go off the bcp in january 07. I knew it was normal to for it to take a few months to get your period back after going off the pill, but i knew something was up when nothing happened a year later. In april 08 i found what i thought was a great ob who dx me with pcos. He started me on met 500mg 2x a day. That worked really well in starting my cycles. I usually get af for two months, skip a month and then get it for two. Tried two cycles of clomid. Right now we are putting ttc on hold til late september as i am at the end of putting together a home daycare. unfortuanetly i found out my ob was charged with sexual assault against two patients. I have found a RE that i will make a appointment with this week. Thats my story and i do have a few questions?

How do you know if your o'ing?
Has anyone tried supplements? I have heard a lot about vitex which i just bought but have not tried yet.

Also i am so bad at remembering to take my met everyday. Don't know why but does anyone know how this effects me?

Thanks and i am looking forward to getting to know all of you!
