| My very best friend was just told she has PCOS
She is absolutely devastated! But who wouldn't be. She and her husband have been trying to get pregnant for almost 2 years. So far she has a lot of people trying to make her feel better about it. She hears a lot of, 'I understand' from people who had no trouble getting pregnant and have several children. I'll be honest. I don't understand. I haven't received the news that I don't produce eggs, and that I will have a super hard time getting pregnant, if I can get pregnant! I don't have any children, but I know I want them as much as she does. I hurt for her, but I don't really know how she feels. We have always 'walked through the mud' together. I want to tell her everything will be ok, but I don't really know that it will. I hope that it will. We have always been there WITH each other FOR each other. I want to help her through this the best that I can, but I need a little help to better understand what I can do. I did some reading about PCOS, and saw that there are a few possibilities. I see that it's expensive and very unpredictable. That's all I understand about it. That was the text book version of it. How am I suppose to tell her what she has already read? Help me help her, please! She's like a Siamese twin sister to me!
