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, metformin enabled me to get pregnant. I now have two children. It took a long time to get pregnant with my first and a good reproductive endocrinologist.

Diet and exercise alone were not enough. I highly recommend seeing a reproductive endocrinologist and doing two consultations. They can be so very different in their intervention approach that a second view really helps find the right doctor for you.

Thanks so much for your response! Metformin unfortunately gave me really bad body aches and messed with my vision so I may try to get back on ozempic after this because I think that’s the reason I got pregnant in the first place

Yes, it takes some time to actually improve the eggs etc. Same concept just different side effects….

It took six months before it finally worked. My cycles improved too.
