Expectant Management
Expectant Management
I have been discharged but I am not sure when I can try and conceive again? I have PCOS so don't have a regular cycle, only have periods around twice a year! Can we start trying straight away? Or is it best to wait 3 months?
Thanks

Re: Expectant Management
I am so sorry to hear of your ectopic pregnancy and loss,
While we usually advise to wait for two menstrual cycles, I can see this won't apply in your case.
The normal "wait" is not only to allow your cycles to resume, but also allows time for your emotions to surface and be worked through after your ordeal and allows time for your body to heal. I would therefore advise to wait 2 months.
Sending much love,
