when should i tell him I have PCOS and that I might not be able to get pregnant... ever?
F/24. Ok, so about 3 years ago i found out that i have polysistic ovarian syndrome and one of the side affects is that I will either have a lot of problems trying to get pregnant or I won't be able to at all. I just started seeing a new guy. Were only about 6 weeks into a relationship. My question is this. When should I tell him that I may never be able to get pregnant. Should I do it right away? Should I wait until we become more serious? I don't want him to think I have been keeping secrets from him. Also, how should I tell him??? Help!

I agree with Zane. I would wait until things got more serious between you. To tell him 6 weeks into a relationship is really putting the cart before the horse even if you are sleeping together.
The time to tell him is when you two start talking about a life together or he starts hinting that you two should move in together. That is when he has to know. This is when you say; "before we go further sown this road their is something you need to know about me." There is an opportunity for a couple of jokes to be made here and he may make one. Then you tell him.
This is not the end of the world. You may with a doctors help have a natural child. If not then of course you two if you proceeded to marriage have the opportunity to adopt a child. This is the time to explore these options with him after you tell him about the possibilities of you conceiving a child naturally. That is of course if he is a man that actually wants children, it could be he may not want and y children.

I would wait
Also, I would never drop the bomb on someone until you have a better idea where you stand. I also suffer from PCOS and I was told that I had a high chance of infertility but I have a son. You can't assume unless you are told by a doctor that you cannot have children.
Also, I would wait until things get a bit more serious. Not only is it very quick to bring something like that up but the talk of kids 6 weeks into a relationship is a bit of a scare off. If he questions it then simply tell him you didn't think to bring it up until things became more serious with the two of you.
