I am so bummed...

Published

I went to the doctor today and the news was so depressing that I can't do anything but think about it!!!! She diagnosed me with PCOS and I am only 23 (and have no symptoms whatsoever!) Anyways, I am so bummed about it (the prospect of possibly becoming infertile is terrifying!) that I can't concentrate on homework at all, which is what I should be doing right now. Please keep me in your thoughts, as I have to wait some time for a second opinion and the whole thing will likely distract me the rest of the semester and I have quite a courseload A&P II, General Chem I, and College Algebra!!!!

PCOS is very common among women I believe, like 1 out of 15 women have it. I am seventeen years old and my mother, who is a nurse, suspects that I have it because I show a lot of the symptoms. However, I believe that you don't become infertile unless perhaps you're much older. All otherwise, I think you should be able to conceive just fine, and they have plenty of treatments available to help you have a new blessing in your life. :)
