Someone in my family is having trouble conceiving.
First, she has PCOS.
Next, they found a lot of uterine polyps, which have been removed.
They are first going to try 4 cycles of hormone injections to stimulate egg production.
If that doesn't work, docs will try IVF.
She foolishly took 3 Covid shots so far, starting Sept 2021. She will likely take as many boosters as the "authorities" tell her. I tried to warn before she did this, but she believes I don't know what I am talking about. She read some false medical literature that claims the mRNA spike proteins are harmless.
Potential parents are feeling very hopeful now, on the first cycle of injections.
NEXT: Her mother developed schizophrenia/bipolar after the birth of the second child. She died a suicide 9 years later.
Potential mother has a low stress tolerance and had to take leave from work due to mental health issues.
I don't know if she is currently on psych meds, but she has been on them in the past. She is emotionally volatile.
If she succeeds in conceiving and giving birth, I am worried about her potential mental health issues. This is something that happens to some women postpartum, and she has two risk factors. I feel she should have had some professional counseling regarding these issues before trying to conceive.
If she is unable to have a child after undergoing the fertility treatment ordeals, she is likely to experience depression.
It is not a good situation. I believe God hears and answers all prayers, although he doesn't always answer in the way we might wish.
I will pray for her, of course, but I have to be careful to keep my lip zipped in order to avoid scaring her. No one in her circle is going to be reading this post.
If anyone feels inclined to pray for this young woman's health and her quest for a healthy baby, it would be much appreciated.
She should read the literature and data regarding infertility after COVID vax/boosters. It is very unlikely that she will be having children. It sounds like she has her hands full already trying to cope with mental health issues - having children would likely exacerbate that situation to the detriment of all concerned.
I will pray for her soul because her eternal destiny is much more important than having children. God bless you and her.
I agree with you that eternity is more important than any other issue.
She had a false conversion, so she is still in need of salvation.
She got married in 2016. I don't know why they waited until now to try for a family. It may have been her PCOS and polyp issues. If they had tried before the vax came out, at least that part wouldn't be a problem.
I have always worried about her potential for the hormones of pregnancy and postpartum causing problems, since that is what appears to have happened to her mother.
Thank you for your prayers.
