Re: Question about breastfeeding & PCOSFrom: angelaj (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 4 Sep 2002 08:51:46 -0500 (CDT)
Kerri, I successfully breastfed both my girls, although the pcos was undiagnosed at the time. I took clomid for the first baby and became pregnant right off the bat.Clomid didn't work 2 years later. After 5 years, I ovulated for some reason and the dr's explanation for it after the fact was pcos. I also had both girls by c-sections. I was able to breastfeed both babies. First one for about 3 months since I went back to work, second one for 11 months, since I didn't have to go back to work. I was put on glucopage 6 months later. I know my local hospital has clinics to help women with breastfeeding issues, you might check with your hospital or dr for that info!
