Au (ajp229@yahoo.com):HELLO! I am Au and I'm new here and I am so overwhelmed with those people who were also like me with PCOS,I thought I am the only person who really felt so depressed. I already undergone a D&C last july to remove my cystic left ovary,at first I thought it was a relief that I am so excited to conceive again but suddenly after a month I started to bleed again ang my obgyn advice me for a hysteroscopy and I never knew anyone from my friends or even some relatives who had done this. so I told my obgyn that I am not ready because I am afraid. thus anyone here can advise me on what to do? and what will be the side effects on this? and what can I expect after treated on hysteroscopy? --- Jenn <anonymous@obgyn.net> wrote: > Hi there.
