I have PCOS and when I was younger my hormones were CRAZY out of control. My DHEA levels were about 3 times the amount they were supposed to be. My doctor thought I possibly had a tumor in my adrenal gland but luckily I did not. I also had issues with my prolactin levels and through out years of taking birth control and spiro and some steriods for a time period I finally had everything going good for about 8 years. Now I am trying to get pregnant and in December I got off my birth control and spiro for the first time in YEARS! I went to my gyno and she was so negative when I told her I got off my pills and was trying to get pregnant. She told that I would most likely not be able to get pregnant with out taking chlomid or metaformin. I told her I want to try and get off all the pills and stay off and get prenant on my own. I understand it takes normal healthy couples a year sometimes to conceive so I thought it was crazy how she was reacting. She told me I probably wouldn't have a period on my own or ovulate. She gave me some progesterone pills when I left with out even waiting to find out my test results. I also told her I was doing a vegan diet and she figured I was not getting enough nutrients on this and that I was eating too much sugar with out even asking what all I was eating. Well I did not take the progesterone and two days later I started my period and have had a perfect cycle the last couple of months. Once I got the lab work results back everything was great with my hormones the first time I can remember while not on BC or sprio. I am not going back to her! I still have not got pregnant but the over the counter tests show positive around ovulation time so I am hoping soon!
