I have PCOS as well and they told me the same thing.. about not being able to have kids I have been trying for some what 5 years.. No luck weight with me is a small issue not to bad. I only have a period every so often.. I also tried a medication that would help me ovulate.. it didnt work.. I to would like to know some answers.. Seem to me they dont tell us anything when somthing is wrong with us!!!!

Well, to me one of the best things you can do is exercise regularly and follow a somewhat diabetic diet. A lot of people with pcos also have insulin resistance which can also prevent ovulation. Some doctors prescirbe glucophage and clomid to help induce ovulation as well. It's a long road. You both may want to consult a reproductive endocrinologist. They know a lot more about this than a regular ob/gyn.

ok thanks for the comment and i have been to a gynacologist and he gave me metphormin which is for people with diabities which helps with the insulin imbalance. what is a reproductive endocrinologist? and i have been trying for 3 years and nothing has happened.

i also have PCOS and i am currently taking the drug metforim once a day to help "kick start" my ovaries as i havent had a period for 7months and for 3 years before that i was on the pill (cilest) my doctor has told me that i can have children still but i am in the early stages of finding a medication that works for me! at the moment i am only one 500mg a day and its not working,so i think i shall have to try a higher does.My friend also has PCOS but she only has one ovary,she used the drug clomid and shes is now 5 months pregnant! so you can yes,but not everyone with it can,some women need to use ivf!

I have PCOS too and my husband's sperm count is very low so we were told that our only option is IVF. have any of you was told the same?

i have 1 daughter six yr. havent gotten pregnant again yet. i have been trying. my period was never regulated and i got it late to start with. i thhink i got pregnant by an accident. i missed my time to take birth control pill and a few months later i was prego. i also bled for the first two months. after labor my period went back to normal then it started skipping months again from time to time. i never got back on the pill and since then havent got perg. im 25 im healthy whats wrong with me. its also hard for me to reach climax.

i am suffering with PCOD and not got pregnancy even single time. We are trying from last 4 years. So many medications have been taken. IUI also over. My hubby is also suffering with less sperm count.

Hi

My wife was diagnosed with PCOS about 3 years ago (before we got married). It was awful being told that we might never be able to have children so we made the decision to try before we got married (not ideal but glad we did!). Anyway to cut a long story short we tried for 9 months and almost gave up. We did get a positive result once but it turned to negative after a week so I guess we lost it. Then a few months later I remember coming home after work and my wife sitting there with a smile on her face - I knew straight away that she was pregnant! We didn't get overly excited as we thought we might lose the baby as many people with PCOS miscarry in the first few months. Anyway 9 months later little Joshua was born - a perfect little baby boy! He's now 2 and is my little mini-me and we love him to bits.

It seemed that everything we read was doom and gloom so I thought I would tell you our little story and don't give up!! It may take a while, even years but it can happen! The only thing I remember that might have made a difference is we both joined a gym and my wife did lots of exercise on the tread mill (for a couple of months if remember rightly). Whether or not this made a difference I don't know but it was around about that time she conceived. I also think she ate much more healthily as she was on a bit of a health kick at the time

Good luck!
