I have one ovary and PCOS, what are my chances of concieving?

When i was 15 (2005), i suffered abdomen pains, i was told i had a cyst on my ovary and had key hole surgery to have it removed, since then i have had my right ovary removed.

(2007) and then started getting cysts on my left ovary. In total i have had key hole surgery 5 times. (3 on my right and 2 on the left).

In februrary 2010, i was finally diagnosed with polycistic ovary syndrome, my consultant told me she had never seen anything like it and that i had "millions" of tiny cysts. I was also told i had a bicornate uterus.(although not sever)

I dont have excess hair growth, im the ideal weight for my age and height.(4ft11 and my weight varies between 7 and a half and 8 stone). The only symptoms i really get is irregular periods from time to time, and i go through phases of depression.

I am generally in good health, although i will admit my diet could be better.

I have been trying to conceive for nearly 3 years and have not had any joy.

I would like to know what my chances are of getting pregnant and im at higher risk of mis-carriage? if anyone has the same or similar condition, it would be a great help to exchange notes with you.

Hi

Like you I have PCOS was diagnosed when I was 30, I am now 35. I conceive natural in 2010 however it ended in a ectopic pregnancy. I have seen a consultant and they said once I reach my goal weight I will be able to have IVF it I don't conceive naturally during this time, as you have no problems with your weight why don't you ask your gp to refer you to a fertility specialist.

Wish you well

Im sorry to hear about the ectopic pregnancy.

Thank you very much for replying and for your advice.

I am going to make an appointment as soon as the doctors are open again. I wish you all the best in your future and good luck along the way. Vikki x

Hello vicky, i soon will only have one ovary, as my other will be taken from me because i have a dermoid cyst.. my mri results.said my other ovary sjowed a 'polycystic appearance' so im guessing i have pcos? - just wondering if you found out what that percentage was of getting pregnant? Hope things went well. Xx
