SUBJECT: Trying to get pregnant
Here's my situation. I'm 29 and have been trying to get pregnant for a year. My OB/GYN told me I have PCOS (polycyctic Overy Syndrom), which I guess is not that uncommon. Anyway, did the Gluglaphage med's for a couple of months but they made me feel sick all the time. So I decided to change my eating habits instead and went on the South Beach Diet (good carbs, good fats, no sugar, you know the drill), hoping I could change my own blood sugar level and not have to take the med's. I ended up losing 10 lbs. Great if your trying to lose wieght, but I'm already very thin. And trust me I'M EATING ALL THE TIME! But now I'm hearing that if your too thin it's even harder to get pregnant??? Anyone heard this? Now what should I do, eat candy bars everyday? I feel like for the first time in my life I'm very healthy, but still no baby.

My next step is Clomed. I'm a little nervous about this. Anyone had bad experiences with it?

Any ideas would be greatly appriciated.
