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!
