I guess the title says it all. Does anyone know of an online community or support group for infertility? Preferably a US based one? Thanks!:flowersfo :thankya:

Fertilethoughts.net is a wonderful site, as well.

:heartbeat Thank you all for the positive thoughts and the great sites! I am feeling better about this, and I know if it is meant to be it will happen. I go back to my doc in November and I'm going to see about starting Metformin (which they use to treat PCOS) and see where we go from there! Thanks again for the support!!! :bow:

I have PCOS, too. If you can, make an appointment with a reproductive endocrinologist - these docs deal with PCOS and fertility on a daily basis. Some gynecologists treat PCOS, but really a specialist is usually going to be more up-to-date.

There is a good support group for women with PCOS that has a large message board. The forums are split up into different categories - for women who are trying to concieve, who are pregnant, who are starting PCOS medications, etc. It's nice because you are posting with women who are going through the same thing as you are. The fertility forum in particular would be a great place for you to visit. These women are helping each other understand PCOS and it's effect on fertility - and how to conquer it.
