I’ve had soooo many fertility questions over the last couple of weeks - especially with fertility clinics closing their doors leaving so many couples twiddling their thumbs about what they can do.

I totally get it. So many women with PCOS struggle with getting pregnant and many of them have been trying to conceive for a couple - if not several - years.

Continuous negative pregnancy tests are weighing on you and your partner mentally and you just want to know how you can get pregnant, if fertility treatment is the only option and if you do decide to try an alternative - how long is it actually going to take, because you’ve been trying for as long as you can remember.

There are so many things to think about when it comes to fertility and what’s going wrong - how do I know how long I should wait to expect results? What the heck is a chemical pregnancy? What happens if you only have one ovary, does that mean it’s even harder to get pregnant? Where do I even start?

I hear you. So in this Mini PCOS Pod episode, I wanted to address these questions in a succinct but clear way and hopefully help all you ladies struggling with fertility issues but not being able to do too much about it at the moment!

This episode is for you if:

• You’re trying (and struggling) to conceive
• You have started a traditional fertility treatment and are thinking about other options

Some things we cover in this episode:

• How long it takes to actually see changes in fertility
• Chemical pregnancies - what they are and why they happen
• How having only one ovary affects fertility
