Hi Sarah :)

My doctor wanted to put be on injectables after only 4 medicated cycles (basically after the second 150mg cycle failed) so I don't think it is too soon.

most likely you'll be using Follistim in a injectable pen. It is not Hcg. Follistim acts like naturally produced FSH by stimulating a follicle (egg) to develop and mature in the ovary.

Keep us updated.

Sorry about the midcycle scan. What did they say? "Obviously you sneezed it out."?

[SARAH25PCOS]

Ok, good. At least I know what I'm getting myself in to. I thought it was "to soon" but it's seemingly the next step. Did you do them?

LMAO @ the sneeze part. I seriously cracked up here in my house alone hhahaha!!! But, seriously where in the hell did it go?

How are you doing lately?

[crimsonbutterflies]

I am not one to trust my instincts very often but something tells me that you will be pregnant by the end of the year and I am not just saying that to comfort you. It just seems to me that you will!

You are super cute and fragile looking and that makes you even cuter. Let me tell you that everything is possible. I knew a woman whose fallopian tubes were blocked and she never thought she would be pregnant but then she fell pregnant with twin boys! And it was all unexpected of course! Miracles.

I know that you're subbed to me on my makeup channel but how did you bump in to me on the TTC channel?

Thanks for your instinct lol - I hope you're right.

i have provera but i am afraid to take them cause all the side effects do you have any side effects and did you have to be ask to be put on clomid

[SARAH25PCOS]

No side effects on Provera hun. For me that is! It just brings on a period - so I guess the side effect is AF :).

I urged my RE to put me on Clomid. He wanted me to loose 25lbs before I did it but I just can't stick to a weight loss regimen.

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18

The shawl is a beautiful idea. I can see you are hurting. I pray that you feel God's unfailing comforts on you during this season of your life.

DH and I are on our 2nd cycle of TTC though I do not have PCOS, I find your vlogs very inspiring and nice to watch. Keep up the great attitude and it hurts me to know that such awesome loving people like yourself struggle with infertility... it's got to be hard.. thank god for this community on youtube!!

p.s...I also just love looking at your makeup, it gives me ideas for me..lol!

Keep up the Positive Attutide girly!! Good Luck with the Injectables!! (((hugs))) (((baby dust)))

I hope your doc. appt. went much better on Monday when you went. That is just crazy about it disappearing. That was so sweet of your mom to get you the goodies and the prayer shall. I think if I had one I would never let go of it at home lol, maybe wear it around like I use to do my blankie when I was a little kid hehehe I hope it helps, and along with their prayers, mine are with you as well. Keep us updated about Monday's appt. FX

hi sarah, im newly diagnosed with pcos, but im an RN and know a few things about it. It looks to me that your doctor is being observant and reacting based on how your body is reacting to the medications. My doctor gave me a refillable script for provera and 2 refills for clomid and said i'll see ya in three months hopefully you'll be pregnant. I felt snubbed lol. And injectables i believe are injections of FSH LH and HCG, the hormones your body needs to create eggs. Hope this helps good luck

[lumdeedums]

I'd say going to injectables is a good thing and shows ur Drs r genuinly trying to help you. What is thr point of taking expensive drugs id thry don't work. Ok so the next step is scary and more expensive, but if it works ur Drs saved you so much more than time and money in the long run. I really hope it works for you. And hey at least u can say ur magic as you have dissappearing parts...

[crimsonbutterflies]

"...where she talks about her journey with PCOS, check it out". I did and after the first video, I instantly loved your character because your character inescapably slipped through your struggle of trying to conceive. What we share in common is the mere fact that we both have PCOS; I wish I could be of more use with my own journey and Clomid doses. I have not tried to get pregnant but I know I might face problems myself in the future. I am sorry if I sound naive with my instincts.

[crimsonbutterflies]

Actually another subscriber of yours from your make up channel has told me that you have this channel. We were talking about our favorite gurus and I mentioned you among others but I said "I wish she could open up more and let us know more of her while making make up tutorials". You know, how some gurus sometimes digress and ramble on about something else but that gives you a hint about what kind of personality they are. Then she said, "well, she has another channel where she talks about..."

Hi Sarah. I am sorry to hear that clomid is not doing it for you. My name is Lite by the way. I have Pcos and have been trying for about 8 years. My doctor put me on clomid my first cycle, but it was not working for me. So immidiately put me on injectables (repernox) and that did it. She had to slow down because I had so many folicles. Didn't get pregnant thougth until I went to Ivf; then I miscarried at about 8 wks. Waited a year and went for IUI & got pregnant, but miscarried at 8 wks.

[jsandlin08]

I hate that this has happened to you! How frustrated you must be! Well maybe the injectibles will be the kick your ovaries need to get you some great follcles. Try to look at it as I still have options and we're gonna try this and its gotta work caouse nothing so far has! Baby dust to ya ~*~*~*~

[thebubblelush]

I've never done injectables, but if this cycle doesnt work she'll probably push them again. Which is fine. You should watch jaharshmans video that's all about starting injectables. You get this 600mg pen and the dr gives you the daily dosage. Each pen is about $600 and you could go through 2 or 3 each cycle. So it's def. more expensive.

I'm fine. CD 8 - NO side effects from Femara. No headaches, mood swings, nothing. YAY! :) I have my midcycle scan next monday. xx fingers crossed xx
