How I cured my PCOS without doctors or medication
Amanda Louw

"Again, I have just spent another couple of hours outside the consultants' office, waiting to hear my number being called out so I can have just 5 minutes of his precious time...

Just like before, I am not given the chance to ask my questions or voice my concerns about the treatment I am getting, or the lack thereof. Instead, I got those dreadful words: "We are going to stop your medication for now because it does not seem to be working for you..."

To make a long story short, I have PCOS or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. Still not sure what that is? Well, it means that you have difficulty in getting pregnant naturally, among a whole list of other things.

What Is PCOS exactly and what are the symptoms?

PCOS refers to the cysts on the ovaries as well as a number of other problems or symptoms such as menstrual abnormalities, a lack of ovulation, male pattern baldness, facial hair growth, obesity and acne.

Here are some of the symptoms you might experience:

  • Not ovulating, or it becomes infrequent
  • Having trouble falling pregnant
  • Experience excess hair on the face and body
  • Gaining weight steadily for no real reason
  • Experiencing high blood pressure
  • Suffer from high cholesterol
  • Develop elevated insulin levels, or insulin resistance
  • Suffer mood changes
  • You suffer from acne
  • Your periods stop, become irregular or painful & your hair thins

Where my PCOS all started.

I never knew that I even had PCOS since childhood until I was diagnosed about 2 years ago. Since my diagnoses I have been seeing one doctor after the next, following this and that advice, been referred more times than there are lottery numbers to choose from and it still makes you want to stab the next person who tells you "It will all be fine, you'll see." Well, not really, but you do feel like it, don't you? And to make it even worse, I got another letter in the mail asking me to come back to repeat my pervious tests in 2 months time, because a nurse or a doctor forgot to file my paperwork on time, or something!

Have you been there before?

If so, just do not give up hope!

If you think you are all alone in this world suffering from PCOS, feeling frustrated, alone or depressed like I did, don't be! In fact, PCOS is something that is VERY frequent among woman and can happen to anyone! Roughly 1 in every 4 woman suffer from PCOS according to some sources while others say it is about 10 percent of all woman... Whatever the real figures are, the point is that you are not alone! From all of our closest friends, 9 couples suffer from PCOS, and out of those 9 couples, 5 managed to have children months , some years after starting their treatment.

Great news for all of us, but, they still have PCOS. This is the stage where we are at now.

I have recently been referred ( again ) to "Barts and The London Centre for Reproductive Medicine Hospital" in London. The infertility nurse at the hospital told me that I need to return my paperwork to her the next day so my referral can be send off within a week. You will never guess what! 7 Weeks on from the time I saw the consultant I got a phone call to say that my blood results are too old! ( What are the odds of this happening, again? ) I asked: "What happened to being referred within a week?", The nurse told me: "I would never have said that."

Needless to say, after I went through all the emotions again, picking up the broken pieces, I had to get new medication and start the whole process all over again because there are blood test that need to be done at a specific time after you start the medication.

At this point the days have turned into weeks and the weeks to months. I hoped that by now we would have had an appointment at Barts and The London Centre for Reproductive Medicine Hospital so we can start the new treatment. But sadly, no. You are at the mercy of "the system" and the system does not work or does not want to work, choose one...

By the way, I have been told that after the results from the latest blood test have been received by the nurse, it will take at least 3 weeks for the referral to be sent. Now honestly, how long does it take to write a letter and pop it into the mail?...

After Barts and The London Centre for Reproductive Medicine Hospital receives the referral letter, they will get back to me within about 6 weeks with an appointment date. If you have not been through this whole process up to this point, it is not as simple as taking your car for a service and getting a phone call explaining that it will take an extra day to order a replacement part! If only!

How I am GOING to beat PCOS.

This is where I decided to "take matters into my own hands" and look for another way to get pregnant! - And no, this does not involve a second husband or anything sinister like that!

In fact, there is another way that does not entail hours and hours waiting to see a doctor or consultant, it does not involve blood tests or prescription medication! It's actually much simpler, AND it not only can help you get pregnant, it actually CURES the CAUSE of the problem for most woman! "Life without PCOS? I'll take two please!"

Now just for a second, would you really like to know what I have discovered after what I just told you I had to go through? What would you give, even PAY to avoid all of that nonsense to be sure that you can start living a normal healthy lifestyle, KNOWING that your PCOS is gone forever?

All of the disappointment, frustration, embarrassment even that empty feeling you get when you look at other couples with children and even some of the side effects PCOS brings for so many woman, like managing your weight!
