Hi there! I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask these questions so I apologize in advance if it is- Me and my husband are trying to have a baby. It’s our very first time trying and I just have some questions.
About a year ago, I went to an OBGYN as I’ve had very irregular periods after getting off BC back in 2019 (and still continue to). She ran tests and x-rays and told me I have PCOS. While I don’t have any symptoms other than Amenorrhea and cysts on my ovaries (no pain - didn’t even know they were there). To prompt/induce a period, she prescribed me 5 tabs of Provera. She also told me I lack the Progestogen hormone! I only needed one tablet and I had a period within 3 days. I didn’t use the remaining 4 as I honestly was kinda cool with not getting a period. Over the course of the year, I maybe had 6 natural periods. Well, last month, was one of those months and me and my husband have been discussing getting pregnant and are finally ready to start trying. I got my period, naturally, last month and can (maybe) assume I’m within my fertility window, but it’s hard to tell. We’ve been getting busy everyday within my fertile window. I have been using the Ovia app to track everything and the app adjusted my fertile window, and we even got busy those extra days. I took an ovulation test this morning and the results came back “high” but I understand that PCOS can contribute higher levels of hL. So, now that you have all of that background, here is my question- would taking the remaining Provera tabs help with implantation?
I know that it’s generally prescribed to induce a period by giving you that Progestogen hormone BUT I’m wondering if it would also help me, given the PCOS, during implantation stage as I know that Progestogen is imperative and I lack it. Maybe a stupid question but it makes sense in my head!
Thank you for your help!!
