TTC (Trying to Conceive)

TTC is an acronym for 'trying to conceive,' used widely in fertility and PCOS communities to describe individuals or couples actively working toward pregnancy, whether through natural methods, cycle tracking, or assisted reproductive technologies like IUI or IVF. The TTC journey for women with PCOS often involves additional complexity—navigating irregular ovulation, managing insulin resistance, timing fertility medications, and coping with the emotional toll of unpredictable cycles. Online TTC communities and forums provide valuable peer support, practical strategies, and emotional encouragement for women with PCOS who may feel isolated in their fertility challenges.
