First Trimester of Pregnancy Answer A34394

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum.
It is possible to have occasional ovulation and get pregnant even though you are diagnosed with PCOS. The symptoms and spotting/bleeding could indicate pregnancy possibility. Consider requesting your doctor/gynecologist for thorough examination (to confirm pregnancy related changes/signs in body) and blood/serum HCG level test (to confirm/rule out pregnancy accurately). If pregnancy gets ruled out, further evaluation would be done to look for the underlying cause for your symptoms. Treatment as appropriate (based on examination findings and investigations results) would be started to help you control the symptoms and regulate your periods. Be in regular monitoring and follow-up with your treating doctor/gynecologist and report any new/abnormal symptoms immediately. Take adequate rest. Drink plenty of water. Maintain healthy diet and lifestyle.
Take care.
