A woman who desperately wanted to start a family was told she had to wait a year before doctors would investigate why she wasn't ovulating. Ellie and her husband had to fight to be taken seriously by GPs when they first started trying for a baby in early 2019, but struggled to get pregnant.
After coming off her contraceptive pill, the 28-year-old stopped getting a period, which made it impossible to track her ovulation cycle. The primary school teacher from Ashby, Leicestershire, told the Mirror : "I came off the contraceptive pill and I assumed that I might get pregnant in the following month.
"I assumed I would get pregnant within six months, I had that in my head. After coming off the pill I didn't have regular periods at all, maybe once every three months.
"I assumed my body was getting back to itself. After about six months of that I went to see the doctors and they said that since I was trying for a baby they said I couldn't do anything for a year."
In many cases, couples do not get referred to an NHS fertility clinic until they've had a year of fertility struggles. Ellie said nothing came up abnormal in her blood tests, but she still wasn't having regular cycles.
She says she understands that from a conception side of things she had to wait a year but felt let down that the fact she wasn't having a period was not getting addressed. After a year of waiting, Ellie learned she had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) - a condition that affects how the ovaries work and can affect fertility.
She added: "They were more focussed on me having a baby. We were trying everything from ovulation sticks and temperature testing. After 12 months we were referred to a fertility clinic and that is when the PCOS came to light."
