Polycythemia is a condition in which there is a net increase in the total circulating erythrocyte (red blood cell) mass of the body.

Hi, I'm just gonna begin 2 tell u my story so far.....It was about 5 years ago, i decided 2 come off the pill after being on it since i was 15. I was trying 2 conceive with my then partner for about 1 year & in that time i didn't have 1 period & obviously didn't conceive. I thought mayb i'm not having a period because i was on the pill for so long so i left it afew more months but then decided that there must be something wrong so i went 2 the docs who then sent me for all different tests & that was how i found out that i had PCOS. They decided 2 put me on the waiting list 4 IVF which i'm still on now. However i'm not with my partner now & am single. I haven't told the docs that i'm single now so therefore still on the waiting list. Does anyone have any advice 4 me on what i should do now where children are concerned. Of course i still want children & i keep thinking that my body clock is ticking as i'm 33 next month. Also it's only been since about 8 months ago that iv'e noticed quite alot of black hairs above my top lip & im auburn. I pluck them but its so annoying. I also seem to be getting quite alot of spots but their lkie boil spots on my face & quite afew on my back but not boil like. HEEEEEEEEELP!!!!! It's really getting me down. My doc suggested i take the pill (DIANTE) but i don't really want to as i feel that it will make it even harder for me to conceive when i find my Mr right, if ever there is one but i just don't feel that time is on my side. Thanks for taking the time to read my story.

you do what's right for for u My friend decided to have kids cause she wanted them so if she got preg she kept the babies. The guy would be like what the hell but he was careless so she was like you put it in me so it was a gift.

Hello, I feel the same way about wanting children. I am turning 30 in a couple of weeks. I found mister right but im having a hard time getting pregnant. i just found out a few months ago that i have pcos. i went off of birth control that i was on since i was 14 and didnt have a period. the one good thing i have found about being on the pill though was my facial hair didnt start growing untill after i got off the pill an now my face seems to break out a lot i had nice skin when i was on the pill. And my periods on the pill were not painful. when i do have one now it is very painful. For me myself i wouldnt want to have a baby without mr. right. I dont want to raise a child by myself. But ive also told my friends in the past that if by the time im 35 i would get IVF if i had to with or without mr right. anyways just wanted to let you know the benefits i had with bc.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
