i got a question for you... its kinda personal but i need someone to talk to .. it may be sickening and i appoligize now but i need your help. When i was younger i had really abnormal periods.. to the point i could fill up a gallon in 5 min it was a heavy period and at times it was clots.. I never got the help i needed when i was in school... once i got out of school i quit having periods at all. for about 8 months then it came back for about 3 months straight (a normal period) but then one summer i hurt so bad and i thought i was having a miscarriage i passed a clot the size of my head and i freaked ... i went to the hospital bc of the pain and worrying i had a miscarriage but when i got there they said i didnt have a miscarriage .. and i was just having an abnormal period.. but thats what every doctor tells me.. i have went to so many doctors and finally i found out i had to have a leap procedure done.. but never heard no more on it (that clinic closed down). so i went back to another doctor and i told him how i was getting car sick alot and weak and not having periods and he was the first doctor that named it.. he said i have polysistic ovarian syndrom... well i take metformin now and i am having regular periods now but im having them regular but for a full month and one week.. im worried like crazy.. and no doctor seems to take it to the next level.. all i want is to know if i can get pregnant? and doctors tell me they dont see why not but no one goes to do testing.. i've been with my husband now for 8 years and we have been trying to conceive a baby and nothing has happened. 30 years old is right around the corner and I want to get pregnant before i get to old. ya know... it kills me to think that i may never get pregnant... So i wanted to see if you have any ideals? please anything that could help, i would appreciate it..i was told that maybe if i can get a doctor to do a dnc to clean me out or even to freeze my cervix that i would prob get pregnant right after.. thats what a friends sister did .. she could get pregnant she tried for 10 years .. she got her cervix froze and within a month later she was pregnant. can you please help me.. and also can you tell me the best place to go.. i quit my job to be a stay at home mom to my stepson and i now have no insure .. i plan on getting back out there to find another job soon with insurence but in the meantime do you know who can help me that wont turn me down bc of insurance also the area im in is Joplin Missouri so any place around that would help thank you so much. ive been batteling this since i was 16 .. im now 26 .. something has got to give to some answers please help thank you.
