Hello,
My name is Carly. I’ve suffered with PCOS for the last 10 years.
After trying to conceive with our first born for 2 years, my husband and I finally sought help. I wasn’t ovulating so I took Clomid and was thankfully able to conceive after 1 month of the medicine. We had a healthy boy in 2017.
In 2019, we had a surprise pregnancy that tragically ended as an ectopic which required me to go under emergency surgery. My right Fallopian tube was ruptured and had to be removed, thus lowering my chances even more of conceiving. I did 6 rounds of Clomid & 3 rounds of Letrozole before finally being referred to a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist.
I have now been undergoing IUIs (intrauterine insemination). I’ve had 4 and all 4 have failed. This is starting to become a big financial burden on our family, but we don’t want to give up as we desperately want to expand our family and give our son a little brother or sister. It’s a hard dream to let go of when from the time you were 5 years old, you’ve known you wanted to be a mommy to multiple kids. We are currently now having to post-pone any further treatment until we can come up with the money for another cycle.
I’m not one to ever ask for help. I like to work for what we have-but I finally accepted that now, I need help.
If you would consider donating to help our journey, it would mean the absolute world to us. Whether it be $1, $100, and everything in between—it all helps SO much.
If you can’t donate, don’t worry! Even sharing our story helps tremendously!
Thank you for all the support, family & friends! We love you and appreciate you all.
