Struggling with Infertility at a Young Age

I am 17 and had a dream to have 4 kids and tbh the feeling of knowing that I cant even have one just hurts me and I try to pretend like its nothing but it screws up relationships when they find out and I just don't know how to get past the feeling that I can't even do what god made me to do and I wanted to know the feeling of being pregnant for 9 months I'll never get to know those feelings and I can't talk to nobody about it bc nobody in my family has had it so I feel like I'm all alone in this

My sister had the same problem and goal. Her solution was invertro. It was a lot of work for her but I have two beautiful nephews now. When a doctor gives you a diagnosis that changes your life, get a second opinion, and even a third. Please. Doctors are human and as flawed as anyone else.

You may still be able to have kids! My mom has pcos and I'm one of three kids. Even if you couldn't biologically have any, adoption or other methods like surrogates are an option, too.

You are absolutely not alone hun! Also, PCOS definitely does not mean you can't have kids. Soo many people do. I'm 30 and I have a 9 year old and 6 year old 🥰 It just means your body needs a little extra maintenance. Don't be discouraged, there are so many ways to heal your symptoms. *hugs*

Has your doctor specifically told you that you’re infertile? Because infertility and pcos are a little different- this just makes it harder to have kids for some people, but not impossible. My mom has pcos and 5 kids
