Getting pregnant with PCOS came as surprise

There are many success stories of Mother’s Lap IVF centre where complicated cases gets success and couples found their happiness when a baby is born . Today I am sharing one of those tough cases where Sanchita Arora (name changed) found out at that she was expecting a baby, it was her best birthday gift  she could have hoped for.

Sanchita had been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) at the age of only 16 and was on medication for long and obviously her chances of getting pregnant with PCOS were very weak.

The challenges of getting pregnant with PCOS

PCOS is one of the most common causes of infertility in women and can have a number of symptoms including irregular periods and excess facial hair.

The diagnosis had hit Sanchita hard and she admits that she coped with it by mentally closing off the option of ever having children. Getting pregnant with PCOS is therefore came as a complete surprise, when many years later and with a partner,  she unexpectedly fell pregnant but, just as she was getting used to the idea, she had a miscarriage. 

Sanchita lost all hope and then she heard from some of her friends about our centre and came to us. Unfortunately she was unable to fall pregnant naturally. We had made some basic investigations and the tests confirmed that she was not ovulating (producing an egg) regularly.

Women who are unable to conceive due to irregular ovulation are often given fertility drugs to stimulate the ovaries and treat the infertility. Sanchita was as on fertility drugs earlier by her GP, and after no success, we suggested her IVF treatment at Mother’s Lap IVF Centre. 

Sacnhita  said: “I remember being incredibly nervous in the build-up to my first visit to Mother’sLap IVF Centre. I’ve never liked injections and was concerned about needlesize. However, I saw the clinic on an open day and I was instantly put at ease.The clinic was comfortable and seemed almost homely certainly not surgical.”

“The nurse and other assisting staff, I saw was so helpful, talking me through the process and even getting me to practice injecting a sponge. It was an incredibly well
organised process, for example all the injections and medication I needed were delivered to my home.”

Birthday Surprise

Just before, Sanchita’s birthday in April 2019, it was confirmed that Sanchita had successfully become pregnant after IVF at Mother’s Lap IVF Centre and, the following December, her daughter was born whom she named Ananya.
