Period problems and fertility
Hi, my boyfriend and I have been trying for a baby for nearly a year. However, I've had lots of issues with my periods (not having one for months and months, then having light bleeding for two months non stop etc.). They are all over the place. The symptoms fit PCOS but I have been tested for that at least three times (and in different ways) and that's not what it is. Both NHS and private docs seem uninterested in finding out the route cause. I really want to get somewhere with this soon as it's really getting me down. Had an AMH test recently which came back normal. Has anyone had this? What did you do? Any advice? Thanks all xxx

Your know that Age, as I was told at the consultation, is the main factor affecting fertility. The optimal period of conception for most women is from 23 to 31 years of age. Then fertility begins to fall by about 3% annually, and 10 years before menopause it becomes problematic to conceive naturally..

Re: Period problems and fertility
I'm not a doctor, but I can try to provide some general information that might be helpful to you. Irregular periods can be caused by various factors other than PCOS, such as hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, stress, weight fluctuations, and certain medical conditions. It's important to note that only a qualified healthcare professional can accurately diagnose the underlying cause of your symptoms.
If you've already been tested for PCOS and the results came back negative, it's possible that there could be another underlying issue contributing to your irregular periods. In such cases, it might be beneficial to seek a second opinion from a different healthcare provider or specialist who specializes in reproductive health or endocrinology. They may be able to provide a fresh perspective and conduct further investigations to determine the root cause of your symptoms.
In addition to seeking medical advice, you could also consider making some lifestyle changes that may help regulate your menstrual cycle and improve your overall reproductive health. These changes might include maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress levels through relaxation techniques or counseling, engaging in regular exercise, and adopting a balanced diet and yoga to get pregnant.
Remember, everyone's situation is unique, and it's important to consult with healthcare professionals who can provide personalized advice based on your specific circumstances. They will be able to guide you through appropriate diagnostic tests and treatment options. Don't hesitate to advocate for yourself and seek the support you need to address your concerns and find a resolution.

Re: Period problems and fertility
Hi, I'm truly sorry you're facing this challenge. While I can't share personal experiences, I encourage you and your partner to consider medical tests to understand why pregnancy hasn't occurred yet. If testing isn’t readily available or affordable in your country, you might explore the option of combining a holiday with visits to a more budget-friendly fertility clinic abroad. There are many blogs that offer practical advice, such as https://theribbonbox.com/fertility/fert ... broad-2024 or https://www.thebraggingmommy.com/the-bi ... -overseas/
