Hello Ladies!
Well it looks fairly likely that I may not in fact have PCOS but late onset CAH.
The net is a little sketchy on this subject, combined with a lot of conflicting information!
It would be great to hear experiences of anyone that has this condition, any information would be really greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,

I don's have CAH but I was tested for it. I was also tested or Cushing's and Conn's syndrome but I don't have those either!
If you have been referred to an endocrinologist and they didn't check for this before moving onto IVF then that is quite poor. They can all be tested by a simple blood and urine sample so hardly involved!
The only positive thing is it seems easily managed by a certain steroid (begins with g!). And this should lessen PCOS-type symtoms like oily skin/hair and lack of periods. And that can only help with getting pregnant.
I hope you get a proper treatment plan soon,

No cycle for me, male factor infertility for H. Clomid resistant.
IVF#1 July/August 2013 at Bourn Hall - 35 eggs collected, 22 fertilised and frozen due to OHSS.
FET#1 December 2013 - BFP on Christmas Day!
It's going to be alright in the end. If it's not alright it's not the end.
