Today, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and confided in my mom, after being told I would have trouble having kids. Five minutes later, I hear the whole family laughing about it downstairs. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I corrected my mom in front of our family while she was ragging on my 12 year old cousin who got a piercing. She said, "You don't understand you don't have kids, but on the other hand you probably never will!" I have Polycystic ovary syndrome, she is right, I probably never will. FML
Today, I was diagnosed with a chronic pain condition. My parents seemed very sympathetic and my mother even cried. When we got home, though, they started laughing and asked if I really believed all the shit the doctor was talking about. FML
Today, my family decided it'd be a great idea to berate me for not being excited enough for my brother and his wife's baby news. They told us on my birthday, adding that if I wasn't so fat I'd have one too. I have insulin-resistant PCOS. FML
Today, I went to the doctor's office, where my mother happens to work. When my doctor tried to prank her by saying I have chlamydia, my mother laughed and said she didn't believe it, adding, "Have you even seen the way she interacts with boys?" FML
Today, my mom is going with me for a general check-up at the doctor's office. She just told me she had a nightmare last night that she went to the doctor with me, and he told her I'm pregnant. I am pregnant. I was about to tell her. FML
Today, in front of my family, my brother's wife announced that she was pregnant with their first child. Everyone joked around and said I was next. Two weeks ago I found out that I'm sterile. FML
Today, after much deliberation, I decided to accept my parents' invitation to a family dinner. A half hour after I arrived, all hell broke loose, because my mom's pregnancy test had come back positive, and she was convinced my dad had poked holes in his own condom. FML
Today, I took a pregnancy test. When I saw that the result was positive, I started crying and showed my mom. She burst out laughing and told me that I had taken an ovulation test. FML
Today, over a family dinner, my husband and I told everyone that I'm pregnant. My father frowned and said, "Again?", my 9-year-old daughter started crying, and her brother smirked and yelled, "Up the ass, no babies!" FML
Today, I mentioned to my mum that one of my friends is pregnant. She decided I was lying, that I'm the one who's actually pregnant, and that I'm going to get checked out by a doctor. FML

and where did you get your medical degree, with the ability to diagnose someone you have never met, nor done any type of lab work on?

Funny, I was going to call her mom a dick. Hopefully between all the various body parts that make up her family, OP can find someone with a heart.

There are PCOS jokes? This must be that new alt-comedy people are talking about. I stick with the old school.

You haven’t heard? PCOS is a Piece of (Cunty Ovarian) Shit! Never heard of new-alt comedy though. Guess I’ll go check it out to confirm that I’m either still young at heart or too old for this shit.

Geez where’s those comments about Dr. Whateversengrodën’s miracle cures for everything from bubonic plague to cat scratch fever?! That assortment of various commenters with the exact same message about their unique experience could really be helpful to OP right now!

It is a more than likely a form of diabetes. Cut the carbs and the vegetable oils.

Probably from seeing all the videos online that talk about curing PCOS with proper dieting. You don't need to be a doctor to inform and educate yourself. The OP should receive better support from her family though. I agree on that.

I have pcos too. It will get easier to deal with this information as you go on, but just remember that even though the chances are reduced you could still conceive naturally. It won’t be the end of the world, I promise x
