Planning to start trying soon and i want to make sure my body is in good shape before that. Not sure what all to check or prepare for honestly. How did u know u were ready, any tips?
I went for a preconception checkup and that helped me feel ready. They checked my hb, thyroid, sugar and started me on folic acid. Honestly a basic checkup tells you more than guessing.
With PCOS I really needed my cycles and weight sorted first, so I worked on that before trying. Everyone's body is different so dont compare. A doctor can check if your hormones are in a good place.
Regular periods, healthy weight, good iron and folic acid in your system are good signs to start. A simple preconception visit to a gynac clears most doubts. Don't overthink it too much yaar, just prepare basics.
I was also wondering the same thing recently. We started taking folic acid and got a basic health check done. It made me feel a bit more prepared honestly.
