Hi,
I am sorry you and your husband are feeling devastated, but you are doing the right thing by educating yourself about your new diagnosis.
Many women with PCOS can (and do!) have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies.
PCOS does make it more difficult to become pregnant, and depending on your exact PCOS diagnosis, it is important to ask the doctor a lot of questions about your specific condition, as every women will experience PCOS differently. The differences depend on the size, location, quantity and other factors of the cysts themselves, as well as your other medical conditions, family history, etc.
Here is some information to get you started learning about PCOS in general, and then please come back and ask us specific questions that you have. We can help direct you to additional resources, as well as help you form questions to ask your doctor about YOUR specific diagnosis, fertility options and more.
