Stormy - PCOS is Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. It's caused by an inbalance of hormones that basically prevent you from O'ing. It is possible to O with PCOS, but the year I was off BCP, I only O'ed once on my own. The other time was with clomid's help. I have read that it's hereditary, but I am the only person in my family with it, so I think it doesn't necessarily have to be. I know I am going to be watching my daughter closely. She's probably going to think I am nuts.

This is from BabyCenter. I have always found their information to be reliable.

As far as fertility problems go, PCOS is one of the easiest to work with. I was on metforman and clomid, which is a typical treatment, and I responded to my third round. I was also on estrogen and progesterone, but those were due to hormone deficiency that was not necessarily due to the PCOS.

I truly hope you are just having one wacky cycle, but if it is PCOS, going to the Dr early is the best thing you can do.

Have a great trip and I'll be checking in with ya to see what you decide to do!
