    • Close Infertility
      Type: Ovarian Issues

      I'm 28 years old and suffer from PCOS. I have excellently controlled type two diabetes and weight issues. I've just finished my first cycle on clomid and did not ovulate. I'm completely terrified of what comes next not to mention depressed.

      Treatments

      Clomid Not Working
      Vaginal ultrasound showed a follicle ready for release, but the blood test shows I did not ovulate even after the HcG injection
    • Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

      Was diagnosed with PCOS at 19. I am now 28 and TTC for almost a year now. I have been preparing for this battle for 9 years, but still finding it hard.

      Treatments

      Clomid Not Working
      Depo-Provera Not Working
      Metformin Somewhat Helpful
      Oral Contraceptives Working / Worked
    • Open Diabetes Type 2

      I'm 28 and was diagnosed with Type II diabetes in 2001. I have had a life long struggle with my weight, which I can't seem to win. The turning point for me was starting on insulin pump therapy. My blood sugar is under excellent control and I have so much freedom now.

      Treatments

      Actos Not Working
      Amaryl Not Working
      Avandia Not Working
      Byetta Working / Worked
      This was the drug that started me on the road to great control. When nothing else worked, this made a difference
      Lantus Working / Worked
      When I was taking multiple types of drugs and insulin, Lantus helped with the control, but I hated the injections and I took so much they actually burned
      Metformin Working / Worked
      This works, but made me super sick.
      Insulin Pump Working / Worked
      This is by far the best I have tried. I love my pump and will probably never go back.
    • Open Obesity

      I've been heavy all my life, but really began gaining weight in college. Stress is a major trigger for me. Stress leads to wanting "comfort foods", which makes me feel worse and the cycle begins all over.

      Treatments

      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Somewhat Helpful
      Physical Exercise Not Working
    • Open Gastric Bypass Surgery

      I am 29 and have just been approved by my insurance company for gastric bypass. I have Type II Diabetes and fertility issues. I am excited for the surgery, but also aprehensive
