does anyone have PCOS?? and are the symptoms different when pregnant.. like feeling absolutely out of your mind crazy?

i have pcos (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), and i have been pregnant before and didnt know it, i ended up having a miscarraige/ectopic pregnancy, the doctors dont know which one it was b/c i have cysts on my ovary. anyways when i was pregnant my emotions were out of control, i was depressed and crying ALL the time and yelling at my boyfriend and everyone i love. and i just was going crazy!! i couldnt figure out why, and now i'm experiencing the same thing only this time my cramps feel like normal period cramping, and before it was the worst pain ever. i am a week late and i go in on tuesday for preg test, and the one i took at home says neg, and when i was pregnant before i took like 6 test and they all said neg. i am having all the signs, back ache, nausea, and beyond tired..anyways my question is does anyone have pcos and are pregnant and are your emotions as bad as mine?

and the doctors said i couldnt get pregnant..boy were they wrong!

Well if you're taking Metformin and are pregnant, the Metformin drastically reduces your chance of miscarrying.

Anyway, I have PCOS but I'm not pregnant. Part of PCOS is increased male androgens (or male hormones = testosterone). So because your hormones are off is why you feel out-of-control sometimes.

Good luck and I hope you get your BFP!

i have PCOS and have had 5 pregnancies...2 live children...2 miscarriages and i'm currently 10wks pregnant...of course being pregnant can/does through your hormones and emotions for a loop, but of all the research ive found, its not related to PCOS

the american pregnancy association says the following:
How can polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) affect pregnancy?

Women who have PCOS appear to have an increased risk of miscarriage, pregnancy-induced hypertension, gestational diabetes, and premature delivery.

hope this helps!
