English related! HELP!”check my grammar”?
I want to send this message for a naturopath. Any grammatical mistakes? Any corrections? PLEASE!
“Hello Sir, I’m a 24-year-old PCOS sufferer. I get my period every two weeks and it lasts for almost 12 days. I’ve been trying to conceive since 2004. I tried Clomid so many times. I even underwent IVF. The good news is that my body was responding to the treatment, the bad news is that there was no pregnancy! Lately, I’ve been doing a lot of researches regarding PCOS and pregnancy. I’ve learned that I could regulate my menstrual cycle without birth control! Is that true? I heard that a natural herb, which is totally safe to take since it’s absolutely natural and doesn’t have any hormones, called Vitex is the key to a healthy menstrual cycle and regular ovulation. So, what do you think? Do you suggest anything I should take along with Vitex? I would really appreciate it if you could tell me what natural herbs might be good for my condition. One more question, if you don’t mind. Do I have to follow a certain diet while taking Vitex?
P.S. The symptoms of PCOS that I have are irregular period, heavy bleeding, and VERY-HARD-TO-NOTICE hair in the beard area. I’m not overweight or anything!
Thanks and best wishes,
Nancy”

Hello sir, I’m a 24-year-old PCOS sufferer, and I am looking for your advice.
I’ve been trying to conceive, without success, since 2004. My menstrual period is every two weeks and lasts for almost 12 days. I’ve tried CLOMID many times, as well as, undergoing an IVF. My body responded to the treatment, however, without a resulting pregnancy.
I’ve researched that one can regulate the menstrual cycle, without birth control. Do you agree?
I’ve also learned that a natural herb, void of hormones, called Vitex, is a safe key to a healthy menstrual cycle and regular ovulation. Do you agree? If so, is a certain diet required or should anything be taken with it?
Aside from Vitex, I would appreciate learning of any other natural herbs that you would recommend, for my condition.
Thanks and best wishes,
Nancy
P.S.:The symptoms of PCOS that I experience are: an irregular period, heavy bleeding, and barely noticable chin hair. I am not overweight.
Sandy asks…
How can I get pregnant naturally with PCOS?
I have PCOS, and my periods have gone from irregular to non-existent. I went an entire year without having a period when I decided to start taking birth control because my doctor says it’s unhealthy to go that long without having one. I saw a fertility specialist and had all the tests run, and I was told the only problem I have is the non-ovulation that my PCOS causes. My husband and I are really ready to be parents, but everyone with PCOS and everyone who knows about PCOS knows that it causes you to not ovulate and if a woman is not ovulating she cannot get pregnant. Obviously, I cannot get pregnant while on birth control, but I know that as soon as I quit taking it I will not longer have a period (which means I won’t ovulate) so I won’t be able to get pregnant and it will be unhealthy for me to stop taking the birth control without another plan. Everyone always mentions IVF or some other type of expensive and possibly dangerous fertility option that is NOT covered by insurance, but I really want to try and conceive naturally and without spending thousands of dollars on fertility treatments that may not even work. Does anyone know if there is a natural supplement or anything else that may help my hormones get back on the right track so I will ovulate even if irregularly? Using a BBT chart and tracking my ovulation days won’t work because as I’ve said I won’t have a period (ovulate) at all. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Michelle answers:
Eating a specific PCOS Fertility Diet is one of the best things you can do to improve your chances of becoming pregnant.
A big part of the problem with PCOS is the high insulin resistance. Resistance to insulin increases the bodies insulin levels which effects normal ovulation by preventing the body from ovulating or limiting the maturation process of the released egg.
This directly has an affect on your fertility and ability to conceive.
Women who are insulin resistant are also 4-5 times more likely to have a miscarriage. Imbalanced insulin levels due to PCOS make it difficult for the embryo to attach properly to the uterus.
Also including hormone balancing herbs such as Vitex, natural Progesterone, DIM and essential fatty acids can help you to bring your menstrual cycle back as well as help to keep your PCOS under control.
There are options out there, don’t loose hope.
Richard asks…
have you been doing fertility treatments could you answer my q?
i have PCOS and dont ovulate, i have to medicate to get a period and me and my partner have been trying to conceive for 3years with only one pregnancy that result in miscarriage at 12weeks due to a partial molar.
in july i did four days of 75iu FSH and i was horribly over stimmed on day 9 with one 20 and LOTS under 16. the result was cycle cancellation. my RE is giving me one more cycle with FSH injects before telling me we will have to move onto IVF (which has a 3year waiting list as they are the only fertility company in our country) so im deperate to make this work.
thing is its been nearly two months since my last period and given the fact i had so many follicles i should of ovulated right? but i didnt otherwise i would of had a period. This leads me to think that maybe i do grow my own follicle naturally but my issue comes to the ovulation itself.
do you think this at all could be possible? i know some ladies do the highest dose and just get one or two eggs but i do the bare minimum and get HEAPS and i still have no period!
im just trying to make sense…i have left msgs for my RE but she is always to busy to get back to me.
The reason i am thinking this is i wonder if i could be natural up until around day14 then use a trigger shot, Has anyone ever heard of this and are you able to do this?
what do you think please help?
yes hes had a couple of samples tested, his count is 12million and 50% motility. weve since put him on sperm vitamins from the clinic and given the fact that i did get preg last year i dont know but im sure it me
thanks everyone,
um kyra thanx but no thanx ive been TTC for 3years im not a newbie…i think i tryed charting within the first few months of ttc obviously it didnt work for me as i have PCOS

Carol asks…
How long I have wait to get treated with IVF after my second ectopic surgery[Laparoscopy]?
Hi,
I have 2 ectopics, first was trated with methatroxate and my left fallopian tube got removed during my second ectopic which was on oct 2 2009, I have a follow up appointment after 2 weeks which was on 13th oct and my OB/GYN suggested to go for IVF procedure rather than natural process[getting thru sex]. Even we made up our mind for IVF. Could somebody please tell me how long i need to wait or what is safe time to go for IVF treatment and how many days bed rest after the procedure. Plz help me as i’m getting lot of pressure from my relatives.
Michelle answers:
When you go to a reproductive endocrinologist it is going to take a few weeks to do all the tests, including ultrasounds and lab work.
Then once you decide to actually go for IVF, it is not just a snap of your fingers. There will probably be a months wait.
By this time you will probably be healed enough to go for IVF if that is what you really wish to do. Considering your tubes are not involved in any way, shape, form or fashion, they really shouldn’t come into consideration at that point.
Just be prepared to give IVF 110% of your time and dedication. It is a rough month, a lot of med including pills, nasal sprays and shots. It can also be very expensive. So check with your insurance to see if they cover reproductive treatments and if so how much.
I had IVF with my last one, so I know how difficult it can be.
Good luck to you.
