The Dreadful Moment -- TVS Result

November 5, 2012

As I was having slight bleeding when I first visited Dra. Tecson last Nov.3, she scheduled me for a transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) two days after. She just prescribed me to take duphaston twice a day for 10 consecutive days to stop the bleeding (although I was not yet set to have my mentsruation until 2 weeks at that time)  She thought it might be caused by ovulation, implantation, or infection. She said duphaston is safe to take even if pregnant. If I am not, then I will get my period after 10 days.

Anyways, so I went back on Nov.5 to have my TVS. The night before that, I was worried because I was thinking what if I had illness other than PCOS. I am scared to death thinking that I would be told I have some kind of cancer already or that I need further surgery.

As Dra. Tan, my sonologist, performed the TVS, she kept silent throughout the procedure and just taking notes with her nurse from time to time. I was holding my breath already for bad news....

Then after the procedure, she then spoke and told me "tell Dra. Tecson normal naman ang matres mo (tell Dra. Tecson, you're uterus is normal). When she said that I wanted to jump for joy because I came clear of cancer of some sort. However, I cannot rejoice fully as my PCOS is still there. But the good news is, I STILL CAN GET PREGNANT!

When I came back to Dra. Tecson to interpret the below TVS results, she told me that our main goal now is to eliminate the side effects of PCOS. She can get me pregnant at this time but it would be too risky as there might be complications from my pregnancy brought about by these side effects of PCOS.



Another thing to rule out is any issue with my DH's little swimmers which we would be getting only 2 days after my TVS.

By the way, my doctor assured me that retroverted uterus has nothing to do with infertility. One can still get pregnant with this.

Hoping to see more positive results soon! :)
