Hi Laura
I am a 21 year old and have been told that i have POCS i dont really know much about it and am a bit scared cause i really want a baby i have been with my boyfriend for 5 years and love him to bits, but i know that he wants a baby and i dont want him just to stay with me cause he feels sorry for me. Do you know if i can have a baby whilst i have POCS.
