For many years I was told I had PCOS until I found an endocrinologist who ran different tests and come up with a different diagnosis. I’ve struggled with infertility for years and found out we were dealing with male factor infertility as well and would have to go through IVF. Your story is such an inspiration and my first FET ever worked and I am now 20 weeks along! It’s still surreal to me that the first transfer worked, but I am celebrating this pregnancy every day!
HUGE CONGRATULATIONS girl!! Makes me so happy to hear your first transfer worked, truly AMAZING!!💕 Thank you so much for sharing your journey, really means a lot to hear your success story and I know anyone reading your comment will also be encouraged! Sending love as you go through the second half of your pregnancy❤️
Aww girl hang in there, you got this!! Third times the charm!💕 Keep going, don’t give up. I’m glad we can relate to each other because that’s why we’re here…we’re all in this together❤️
I took birth control for 10 years as well, if completely fucked up my fertility, and now we have to start IVF. I wish I knew more about this drug/was more educated, and that it wasn't just prescribed to everybody. Now I have to deal with those consequences. Thanks for posting the video, I definitely feel less alone now (and vindicated)
I’m so glad you posted a recap of your journey! I was recently diagnosed with PCOS (and my husband with male factor) after struggling to get pregnant and it filled in so many gaps in health issues I have experienced over the years. We turned straight to IVF and are currently waiting results of testing our embryos. I have been watching your videos along the way and had always been curious if you had PCOS like me and now I can see so many similarities in our stories. Thank you for sharing!
I’m so glad you found encouragement from this video!❤️🤗 I’ve never been diagnosed with PCOS because I didn’t meet the criteria of ovarian cysts or high testosterone. I had a lot of the same symptoms tho! Praying you get the healthy embryos you’re hoping for💕 Sending lots of love and baby dust your way as you continue on your journey!
Ooooh for some reason my mind went straight to PCOS (probably just because I’m in the thick of it lol) I should not have assumed. Thanks for the kind words - glad that you guys had IVF success and looking forward to seeing your content as a mom! 🤗
I had a coworker (she is 32 years old) who took birth control for 10 years plus and when she was ready to have kids after she got married, her period never came back. This started during COVID 19 and kaiser permanente was giving her a shot that caused her to get a period every other month. She wanted to go every month but there were too many people who needed it and the clinic was backed up. She can get every month now.
Truly congratulations to you Brittany. Your journey is massive and a real inspiration to others to not give up. I am so pleased you got your happy ending after every trial and hurdle x
Very sweet of you to write all of this!!❤️ Thank you so very much and I’m so glad I’m able to share in hopes of helping other women in similar situations💕
I did my IVF through Seattle Reproductive Medicine The naturopath I used is in Seattle through Seattle Integrative Medicine - Dr. McCarty And you are so welcome!❤️

Hi! I appreciate you sharing your story and your videos. Out of curiosity, did you cut caffeine out while you were prepping for your embryo transfer?
Aww you are so welcome!🤗❤️
No I did not cut caffeine while preparing for my FET. I reduced it to under 200 mg right after my FET
