I am sorry you are going through this! Let us see what information we can provide to you, but I do have a few questions first.
1. Were you diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)? What information did your doctors provide to you, about PCOS?
2. What did you have laparoscopy for? This is just a type of surgery that can be used for many reasons. Were you diagnosed with ovarian cysts, or PCOS, after this surgery?
3. What other symptoms are you experiencing, other than amenorrhea (absence of periods)?
4. What medication are you taking?
5. Did your doctor tell you that after surgery, you would be able to conceive? Do you still have the diagnosis of PCOS?
Please know that PCOS is unfortunately common in women (1 in 10 women), and is the primary reason for infertility. Do you have a family history of PCOS? It is also a condition that is extremely frustrating and emotionally draining for women, as there is no known "cause" or "reason" for why you would have PCOS; some experts think it may be hereditary, but others are not sure about this. It may also have a link to diabetes, but again...others are not sure.
You do have many options available, and I hope you have a wonderful doctor who is talking with you about your exact diagnosis and treatment options.
We are here to answer questions that you have, and in the meantime, you can read some of these sites for more information about the "basics" of PCOS, as well as current research on PCOS:
