Although my story isn’t one of getting pregnant but my story is one of initiating the process. For two years my husband and I have been trying to conceive. I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 and although I thought it wouldn’t affect me much, it has. In the last year I have had an absent menstruation. In my struggle and urgency to get pregnant I decided to see a fertility clinic, I went through grueling tests, and was given Provera to start my menstruation. As happy as I was that it had started it also gave me an extremely heavy blood flow and made me feel really sick. After I took it my menstruation didn’t continue. I was also given metformin but I was determined that there had to be a natural and less harmful way to get my menstruation back.
I decided to google PCOS support and found Natural Fertility. The information that I came upon and started to read was priceless for me. And once I saw Hethir Rodriguez provided advice on PCOS I knew I was doing the right thing. As soon as I read everything, took notes I started taking, Vitex, Dong Quai, Black Cohosh, Maca, Red Raspberry tea and Vitamin B complex. I started the herbs on October 9’13 and today October 22’13 I got my menstruation. I was so happy and excited I called my husband right away!!! This all gives me so much hope and to continue doing the regimen. I am hoping 2014 I will be able to surprise my husband with the best news ever as I’ve thought of soooooo many ways on how I can surprise him! 🙂
