Has Anyone With Pcos Gotten Pregnant After Lapband?

[klariade 7]

Yes! I am currently 7 weeks preggo with my first! Had lap band surgery in August 2009, Lost 162 lbs but put about 60 of it back on over the past year after I got married. I could kick myself for allowing that to happen! My PCOS actually went away for awhile, and as I started to gain weight it came back. So I know now that my PCOS is totally weight related. Even now though, the PCOS symptoms are far less than they were 100 pounds ago, so at least progress has been made. Can't worry about weight loss now, but after this sweet blessing gets here I will definitely be getting back to band basics!

I got pregnant 2yrs after being banded, we had been trying for 10 yrs with no luck. Not being able to get pregnant caused a problem in our relationship and we broke up. Since I still wanted a baby I decided to try IFV with donor sperm, I got pregnant with the first round and I had my blessing: Mrs. Kennedy & she is the light of my life. So dont give up the fight, theres a light at the end of that tunnel.

Has anyone with PCOS gotten pregnant after losing weight? I have PCOS and one of the reasons I'm getting banded is because down the road I'd like to have children and I know PCOS may lead to infertility.

Yes, I got banded 09/2010 for the same reason. I am now 10 weeks pregnant without meds.

I actually got pregnant twice after having the lapband and having PCOS. Unfortunately both ended in MC because of my age and the quality of my egg. I am happy to say after having an egg donor that I am now 7 weeks pregnant. I was pregnant with twins but unfortunately we lost one last week so I am home on rest. But the other baby seems to be doing well. Saying our prayers and hoping for a great Christmas to share the news with the family.
