With PCOS, our cycles are so irregular, so these calculators can be a bit tricky. I always wait at least a week after my longest cycle before testing, just to avoid false hope. Stay strong and test when you feel ready.

You can try testing 4-5 days before, but waiting until your missed period gives the most accurate results.

This protects the newborn baby from neonatal tetanus, which can be life-threatening during delivery. It is usually given in two doses or as a combined Tdap vaccine in the third trimester.
