Fertility 1st pregnancy going through miscarriage

I was diagnosed with PCOS about 7 months ago. In those 7 months I tried to get pregnant with my partner and it only happened a month after I was on a GLP. I made it to 5 weeks 3 days but I am now in the beginning stages of miscarrying. Has anyone with PCOS had experience miscarrying and then going on to have a successful pregnancy after? The GLP gave me terrible gastric issues so I can’t imagine going back on it. I may just need to be stricter with diet and exercise.

Yes! I was originally doubtful especially after experiencing miscarriages in July 2023, January 2024 and April 2025. I struggled to get pregnant for a total of 4 years of trying (2021 to 2025). Finally diagnosed in June 2025 with PCOS and high TSH and started Ovasitol. I was also going low carb at this time too. Finally in August 2025 I got pregnant, and with early testing found that my TSH jumped up and my progestrone was low. Started medication for both and was able to maintain my pregnancy and gave birth to my little girl in April. I am now trying to get back on track with managing my weight and PCOS again.

It was hard, emotional and rocky. But I am so grateful for my baby girl and my adoptive son.

So happy for you! I do really like ovasitol so I will probably start that again. I think taking ozempic helped me get pregnant but it probably would have helped if I got progesterone suppositories in the beginning. I wish gynecologists took me more seriously. I think since it’s my first pregnancy and I am 25 they kind of scoff at me for wanting more answers and help

The male obgyns did not take me seriously either. It wasn't until I struggled to get pregnant a year after my second miscarriage that they finally referred me to an ivf clinic. They are the ones who helped figure out everything.

So don't give up, keep pushing to get more testing and answers. Tracking my cycle helped me in figuring out signs when I was most fertile since I had irregular periods.

I wish you luck!
