i have poly cystic ovarian syndrome, what is the chances of me getting pregnant without fertility drugs? i just took provera (medroxyprogesterone) and have heavy period

Question

If you get all your Depo-Provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) shots on time and get no period anymore is there still a chance pregnancy would happen? What are the chances?

Answer 1

Little chance.: Some women with polycystic ovary syndrome will ovulate (release a mature egg) occasionally , others do not ever ovulate. In order to conceive, sperm must find and fertilize a mature egg . So ovulation is a must.

Answer 2

Good chance: Some women with PCOS have no issues getting pregnant without meds and sometimes, metformin is used to help conceive, which is seen as a diabetic med more than fertility.

Answer 3

Not great: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common reason women have trouble conceiving. You need to be evaluated and consider treatment.

Answer 4

No: First genetics are responsible for only some birth defects. Second the genetic tests that are usually done in pregnancy are for chromosomal problems (like down's syndrome), not for single gene problems or genetic syndromes.

Answer 5

Help to make choice: Karyotype or chromosome copy number analyses of fetal cells can reveal chromosome abnormalities of a fetus. In addition, several other genetic tests can detect specific genetic defects of a fetus. If the test is performed sufficiently early, one can make a decision what to do with the pregnancy.

Answer 6

Nope.: Genetic prenatal testing can detect many chromosomal or microscopic dna defects - but it cannot prevent birth defects! 2-4% of all newborns will have a minor or major birth defect and the vast majority of those have unknown genetic underpinnings at this time, although many of us are working to change that. Take Folic Acid 1-5 mg daily to prevent 75-95% of major neural/cardiac fetal anomalies!

Answer 7

Repeat the test: Sometimes it takes up to a weeks for the urine test to turn +. If you feel pregnant and continue to have a negative urine test i suggest that you have the more definitive blood test.

Answer 8

Do a blood PT: You need a blood bhcg, if neg could be form other hormones being not right or other pronblems, your gyn can figure out what is going on when you see your gyn or a gyn, they will do an exam, blood work and ultrasound.

Answer 9

Blood HCG: If you had sex since your last period, get a blood test for HCG level to settle the issue of pregnancy.

Answer 10

Water retention: It could be other things, but probably some lingering hormonal changes like water retention. If you think pregnancy is possible, then do a test.

Answer 11

Many reasons: The clinic should have already told you possible causes, could be pregnant or problems with your female hormones you need the results of the blood and cultures and i recommend getting a pelvic ultrasound by a gyn doctor.

Answer 12

Many causes: STDs usually cause too much bleeding rather than delayed periods. Stress,weight, exercise, diet, medications, and diseases such as thyroid disease,diabetes/insulin resistance, PCOS, adrenal disorders, and pituitary problems can all cause you to miss periods. The clinic probably tested for all of these,and you should have your answer soon. Best wishes.
