I was diagnosed infertile at 19, told I was never gonna have kids, never had a regular period, pretty much checked off all the symptoms of pcos BUT last 2 month's we celebrated my daughters first birthday conceived naturally with herbs remedies
Thank you for being for transparent. I too suffered from PCOS and as a result I had many years of pain as i struggled with fertility. After many years of trying and 7 miscarriages we did have another baby. My 27 y.o daughter was recently diagnosed with PCOS so working to educate her on it as well.
Aw really?! Wow 7? What a journey! I'm so happy to hear that you were able to get pregnant and have another baby! Yes, you're doing right getting her educated early about PCOS. Thanks for watching!!
I'm preparing to start IVF. Since forever my mother told me to not get pregnant. I couldn't even play with boys on the playground my mother was so strict. Go to school, get a job was her mantra. It came from the struggles my granny and grandpa had from having 13 kids & humble beginnings. But now in my late 30s, early 40s, I'm struggling to carry full term. Its like you do everything "right".....graduate high school and college, get the job, get married, get the home, picket fence and the dog and then, BAM! Gut punch. 👊🏽 Unexplained Infertility. 😵💫 It knocks the wind out of you.😵 Now, I am left to wonder was waiting worth it? Did i take too long living my life although it seems so short? It all seems so cruel to me. Is there a right age to have kids? I guess the answer is yes and no. It depends....🤷🏽♀️
Hi Angel! Glad to finally hear your story! I personally don't think people believe infertility is a bad thing, I think it's the emotions attached to not being able to do something that comes so easy to others, or considered "natural" especially when you really want to become a parent and it doesn't happen time and time again. I believe it is the same as not sharing your pregnancy in the first trimester, because this is where the higher risks of miscarriages happens. It's not something people want to share from what I have seen until they are in the clear. It's something personal and hard to share if you have been hopeful and not been successful. I'm not a mother, really wish to be and even if I don't know for sure if I suffer from infertility (over 30 yrs old) It's something I constantly worry about and don't care to share if it's not my inner circle of friends. I would rather share all details once I'm done with that chapter if that makes sense. Anyways, I'm excited to see your belly shots next video!!! I'm so happy for you!!! But it breaks my heart at the same time for myself because I want this badly! I don't want a child by any means, I want a child with my future husband and not by a baby daddy if you know what I mean...And you're my inner circle online girlfriend 😉 that's why I can share this with you!!! ❤❤❤❤
Hey Lady! Maybe it's a southern thing, but down here it is definitely insinuating as a negative term down here. Like you're not normal. The south is always behind...But I totally get you not wanting to open up. That is totally normal as it is so sensitive. You should only do it when you're ready and on your time schedule. But I'm glad I did as it so suprising how many people then told me they were having the same issue or their relatives were. Definitely opened my eyes and made more frienships than I could've imagined. But what God has for you, is definitely for you! And you will be a mommy one day! We are claiming it!! And yep I get that whole baby daddy thing girl. But don't ever feel like you need a man to do it either. I was raised in a single parent household and I have friends (over 30) that recently went under IVF with a sperm donor because they wanted their own kid before they got too old and are loving every minute of it. But I will definitely keep you in my prayers love and pray give you the desires of your heart! So glad to be in your inner circle!!
@@angelgrace2 hey Angel! Thank you for your prayers! I receive them!!! I'm not as confident as you are about me becoming a mom but I have hope. You might be right on how it is perceived from a country to another and/or the mentality being different from a country to another. I didn't think about that but glad to be having this conversation. I hear you about being able to do it on my own. It is an option that I have thought about, but not really one I am willing to consider as of now. I have tons of respect for single mothers and parents out there. If you can, I would love to hear more about your friends going through the ivf journey on their own. I haven't met anyone in that position yet. Thanks for always replying inner circle girlfriend!!! ❤
Hey girl hey! I was diagnosed with PCOS but it doesn’t make sense...I got a period every single month never skipped. My hormone levels were normal but I got a sonogram and had 3 tiny cyst. Would you mind sharing what labs they did on you?
Hey dollz! Did you?! O wow, interesting. They confimed me with blood test and could tell by my levels plus the signs (irregular cycles, etc). But you case it quite interesting?
Hi Angel, I so glad everything worked out for you & your husband. You look Beautiful! Thanks for all the information on IVF. Stay Blessed & Have a wonderful weekend!🤗❤🙏👍
Your welcome. I'm so happy for you and your husband. You going to be amazing parents. Sending you Blessing, Prays. CONGRATULATIONS!! Have a wonderful Wednesday! 😊❤🙏🙏🙌🙌💃
Hi Angel. Congratulations and best wishes for a healthy baby. I had an appointment with a RE this week. Thank you for this video, infertility is usually such a taboo subject.
Hi Tanee! Thank you so much! Did you?! How'd it go? I hope all went well! I hope my IVF series give you a great sneek peek into the process. And yep, I agree...infertility is a taboo subject!
Yes you can get a false positive if you take it too early! Make sure to ask your nurse when you can take it without having to worry about a false positive. My nurse told me 7 days the HCG from the medication would be out my body.
Can you elaborate more on your husbands male infertility factor issues. Was it sperm count, shape or movement. I’m dealing with all three, doctor says next step is testicular biopsy.
I’ve always had irregular periods and when I do have them, Im super sick the first 2-3 days. I found that if I have less sugar/caffeine I’m less sick during my periods. Not sure if I have PCOS but I’m going in to find out soon!
Totally undersand! Yep I def had irregular periods! PCOS is not bad, but is helps to know if you have it so you can do things to help conquer it. Good luck hun!
Can you elaborate more on your boyfriend’s male infertility factor issues. Was it sperm count, shape or movement? I’m dealing with all three being abnormal. doctor says next step is testicular biopsy.
Hey there! I totally understand. I honestly didn't go on online reviews as fertility is such a sensitive subject and not everyone is going to have a great experience if you know what I mean and may blame others. I based my opinions of FIRST IMPRESSIONS, how conformtable I was talking to then, and ike I mentioned I asked a series of questions that I put in my journal to get a better idea of their clinic. Also compared prices and hidden terms, which I also put in my journal to help others. The combination of these is what I based my decision off of and not reviews:) Because people said bad things about my clinic, but I had no issues and love them. I hope that helps!!
I am so glad you emphasized that irregular cycles are not normal. Birth control just covers it up- once you come off, you go back to irregular cycles. Birth control for contraception is great, but not to regulate cycles. As a chiropractor I also work in an interdisciplinary setting. Our cycles are not just about periods and making babies - your cycle gives clues as to how your thyroid is functioning which we know the thyroid is responsible for energy levels, bone health, etc. You are absolutely correct about diet - if you want to treat PCOS naturally without side effects, a ketogenic diet is amazing! Insulin levels lower as well and you also come to a healthy weight. I think all women should track their cycle, regardless if they want to reproduce or not, because your cycle gives a window to understanding your overall health.
Thanks for that. Totally agree 👍. Omg I'm seeing a chiropractor now! Lol..but yep so true, it's not normal and birth control does not fix the issue. Thanks for watching!
Totally understand! I've always hated shot also! But it is so worth it!! Praying all goes well! Stay safe and know that you're a warrior!!🙌 You can do it!👌

Just passing through, but wanted to say how wise and sharp you are. All the best to you and your family!
Aw you're so kind. Thank you very much🙏
Same to you and your family!
ive heard so many stories about women with pcos having irregular cycles
Yes yes yes. If you aren’t getting periods every month something is wrong! So many doctors dismissed me
Hey girl hey! I was diagnosed with PCOS but it doesn’t make sense...I got a period every single month never skipped. My hormone levels were normal but I got a sonogram and had 3 tiny cyst. Would you mind sharing what labs they did on you?

@@angelgrace2 My appointment went well. I had a transvaginal ultrasound that day then went back for SEMA4 bloodwork last week.
thank you.
Aww I'm so excited for you!
They said don’t take at home pregnancy test due to hcg being in the medication is this true. Can You get a false positive
Yes you can get a false positive if you take it too early! Make sure to ask your nurse when you can take it without having to worry about a false positive. My nurse told me 7 days the HCG from the medication would be out my body.
Thankk youu!!! Just had my first ultrasound I’m pregnant!!
Can you elaborate more on your husbands male infertility factor issues. Was it sperm count, shape or movement. I’m dealing with all three, doctor says next step is testicular biopsy.
Hi. I can't quite remember but but no biopsy was needed although they did tell us IVF was our best option because of the issues. Hope that helps.
Im so glad I found your vedio

Same here🙋..My husband has low sperm count. We will be trying IVF soon
Do you have any advice on what to look for in a fertility specialist?
Seems like everyone of them have terrible reviews. 😕

Hello
I’m really having a hard. Time getting pregnant
Aw, I'm so sorry to hear that! I've been there so I understand. Praying that things get better.
Are you a believer in Christ ???❤

My first shot is friday and I'm SO scared. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to do IVF but i'm so scared of the shots and surgeries
Totally understand! I've always hated shot also! But it is so worth it!! Praying all goes well! Stay safe and know that you're a warrior!!🙌 You can do it!👌
@@angelgrace2 I did it! it wasnt as bad as I was worried! thank you so much
