How To Handle PCOS Stress while Trying To Concieve

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a monster. I know that. I know you wish you could just use a eraser and erase it out of  your life so you wouldn't have to deal with all the stress and struggles it puts you through. However that's not possible, but, I know you can get pass it with less stress and worries. It wont be very easy but you can get pass it utilizing one or more of  the ideas outlined below along with a cup of patience and practice.


1. LISTEN TO  MUSIC

Instead of crying and getting frustrated at the whole world, why not try listening to some of your favorite tunes on your iphone, mp3 player or phones? Listening to your favorite tunes can really work magic for you, especially if you are a music lover. However if you are feeling down, please refrain from listening sad songs, songs that will put you in a reflective mode and make matters worst. Its best to listen songs that have rhythm, ones that will make you sing out loud or even make you bounce along
:-D.

2. GARDENING
Ok! You aren't a music lover, but you are indeed a lover of flower. So why not get you shovel, gloves and all the necessary gardening material and start transforming that negative energy that PCOS have placed upon you to beautifying your home? Gardening can be really fun and I know it can be very relaxing looking at beautiful flowers sitting around in your home. I know it can get pretty messy in the garden at times but its worth the try.



3. Manicure & Pedicure
After doing all that gardening its now time for a little manicure and pedicure and if you didn't do gardening, its fine, you can still go ahead and pamper yourself. Every woman loves to be pampered so getting a manicure and pedicure, for sure, would be fun for many women. You can either do it yourself or you can visit a professional. However I would recommend that you do it yourself. Reason being is that it would have your mind focusing much more on the process of getting your hands and feet looking beautiful than if you visited a professional who most likely will do a great job while you just relax and that creates the chance of you reflecting on your pcos                                                                                           struggles.

4. EXERCISE
Exercise is a very important aspect of your TTC with PCOS journey as well as the treatment of PCOS in general. So if you haven't start doing it yet, you can start now. In order to also rid yourself of the emotional and physical stress that PCOS has to offer, you can also use exercise to help you. You don't have to over do it but make sure it is enough to help you in a positive way.



5. SHOPPING
I Love love shopping!! Fun shopping is not just walking in a store to pick up an item and then head on back home. To make your shopping fun and enjoyable you have to take you time to browse through items, which can be pharmaceuticals, clothes, shoes, household items etc and  read the instruction or ingredients on products. This way you would choose the best of the best, go home feeling happy and relieved of your stress & frustration.
So if you were use to just buying and go, make a change and add little more fun to it next time.



6. Night-out
So you have gotten your nails done, you have bought yourself a new outfit, you wont be doing anything much over the weekend and your feeling sad and distress because you really want a baby or to get over feeling down. Don't you think calling up a few friends or relative to go on a night-out would transform the sad you, to a happy you? I for sure think so. I don't think a little chit chat with friends or relatives or dancing off your heels will make things any worst. I think it could only make it better. So go on now, get those shoes and out fits on, call up some people and go have some fun. This too is worth the try.

7.  JOIN A FORUM/GROUP ONLINE
If you are the stay home type a woman and enjoys being at home or by yourself, you can go ahead and join an online forum or group that shares your interest. This way you can share your experience with others as well as hear what others are going through and offer support. This will also allow you to realize that there are others out there who are going the same struggle as you or even more.

8. READ
Yes read! Reading is also a fun activity, you might be saying oh no to this but i am telling you, OH YES!! I bet if I had a book that interest you, lend it to you to read, you wouldn't want to give it back until you are done reading it. Why? There are several different types of written pieces. You have magazines, newspaper, fiction books, non fiction books, romance novels etc. and there must be one in which you enjoy. Therefore, you can choose the one that suits you best and start reading. Doing this will not only occupy your mind but it will also increase your vocabulary and give you the chance of learning something new.

 The saying says " one size doesn't fits all." So ladies choose what suits you best and men help your ladies by sharing these ideas with them. Go on now and use these fun ideas to whip PCOS down to the ground. CHOW!!! :-)
