The Story of Pregnancy Journey when Diagnosed with PCOS
It’s not an easy thing to face the fact that it’s difficult to have children. 1, 2, 3 years of waiting and never coming line 2. Maybe you still don’t understand that reproductive health, lifestyle, mentality greatly affect the success of getting pregnant.
On the same occasion, Mrs. Grace Tahir, who is also the Director of Mayapada Hospital, was present. He warmly shared about his experience of struggling to have a second child. As it turned out, he also had PCOS which was one of the reasons it was difficult to get pregnant
“For a year, I was depressed.” said Mrs. Grace. How important is the role of the partner in providing support and continuing to communicate to achieve the best goals, so that the wife who gets a diagnosis of PCOS is not stressed or even burdened.
We can also sort out an environment that makes us comfortable, when we are able to accept and try our best and surrender ourselves to Allah the Almighty, the hope of being able to experience pregnancy will occur.
“But strangely, when I let go of all that. Refusing to be injected with anything and trying to accept, happy with what I have, I just got pregnant by myself!” continued Mrs. Grace.
Mom really likes how she shares her experiences and stories so that as a woman she remains confident and not insecure. So we really need to anticipate the environment and we really cannot control what comes out of other people’s mouths, but we have ears to choose what we live with and have the choice to get out of an environment that is mentally disturbing.
“We change the mindset. Women are not judged by their ability to get pregnant or not. Not judged by being able to give birth to sons or daughters. Precious woman. We are special. We are perfect!” he concluded.
For this reason, married couples can also pay attention to their wife’s fertile period and husband’s health so that they can achieve optimal pregnancy results. To find out your fertile period, you can calculate estimates with the femometer application, or for more accurate results, you can use Ovutest.
The talkshow also introduced various variations of ovutest products with a high degree of accuracy in determining the fertile period, so that the expected results of successful pregnancy can have a high probability.
