PCOS Challenge, Inc.  

It is estimated that more than 1 in 10 women are afflicted with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), yet most people are uninformed about it and have no idea that such a condition exists. Women with PCOS experience a combination of symptoms that can lead to serious conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and infertility. In fact, PCOS is a leading cause of infertility in women. There is no cure for PCOS; therefore it is a life-long condition, and people need to be informed about managing this syndrome and all the symptoms associated with it. Because PCOS affects so many women, chances are that everyone knows someone afflicted with it. Therefore, it is important to stay informed. The purpose of this radio show is to inform people about PCOS and other diseases and conditions related to PCOS. The experts interviewed on this PCOS Challenge Blog Talk Radio show will give advice, support, and their insight to help women overcome PCOS. To join PCOS Challenge, visit www.pcoschallenge.com

    How Do We Get Our "Happily Ever After?"

    For some of us, when our doctors tell us that we have PCOS, denial is the first phase. The diagnosis, for many, usually means that there will be difficulty with quite a few things in life, including conceiving, or as some of the doctors put it, "especially conceiving." This is a heart breaker for many women as they learn about their PCOS diagnosis. So some women live in denial or brush off the diagnosis--until they try to conceive. As women who grew up with certain visions of their lives, the thought of having difficulty conceiving is horrifying. It is just "supposed to happen" when we are ready. We are supposed to fall in love, get married, have babies, and live happily ever after. Many women with PCOS and those struggling with fertility issues are asking, "Where's my "happily ever after?"

    Many of us have known friends who were so fertile, that they seemed to get pregnant from their men just "looking at them." After all the safe sex talk, and trying so hard not to get pregnant during their younger years, many women with PCOS who have difficulty conceiving when they are ready, look back and wonder if they have really never been able to get pregnant as easily as their friends without PCOS. One lady wrote in her blog that she felt as if all those years of "being careful" was just a waste. It wasn't a waste, though, because now she is probably now trying to have her family with the one she loves, and who is supportive of her. Not to mention that she probably saved herself from some life altering diseases.

    As some women approach the big 3-0, 4-0, or whatever milestone we want to use to mark life accomplishments, like many other women (PCOS or no PCOS) who do not have children, the thought crosses the mind from time to time (or all the time), especially if they are not yet ready to even start trying to conceive. People pressure you. Doctors, family, friends, coworkers, and even strangers tend to give the "you are not getting any younger" speech. Sometimes they don't even have to say anything. They pressure you with their eyes. Perhaps it is our own biological paranoia, but we feel the pressure nonetheless. So we wonder. What will will happen when we are ready to start our families? Well, the best bet is to stop fearing, and start believing. Yes, people may call you naive or a cliche. However, it is great to be filled with hope because, besides all the reality of the difficulty that most women with PCOS who are trying to get pregnant face, there are also the wonderful success stories. There are people who are pregnant with their fourth and fifth children--naturally--after trying and failing for years. There are those who failed infertility treatments numerous times before it worked, and those who were successful with their first attempt. We may also hear of or know women with PCOS who have given birth in their 40s. Some of you have adopted and are as happy with your adopted children as if you had given birth to them yourselves. Seriously, these are the kind of stories that we should choose to let influence our thoughts. Even if you are currently having a difficult journey with infertility. It is really rough, depressing, and hard to deal with while you are going through this frustrating process; however, do not give up. Do not lose hope. One lovely lady said that she knows that is is God's plan for her to have children, but she just wants them now. The operative word there is know. It is unfortunate that so many times, the things that we want do not come to us when we want them. However, patience and a positive attitude plays a vital role in this process. Just ask some of those fortunate women who now have their children.

    So, continue fighting for your babies. Do all that you can right now to prepare your wombs, minds, hearts, and homes for the children that deserve to be there. Good luck to all those who are trying to conceive or are in the process of adopting. And for all who have not yet started the process of trying to conceive, or starting your families, and are worried about the possible hardship ahead, just be persistent like these other women here on PCOS Challenge. Most of all, try not to worry. Being afraid of the unknown, or extended bouts of worry, puts a kind of stress on us that goes against what our bodies need to prepare for healthy embryos and babies. So, stay hopeful, be strong, and be encouraged.
