Hi! I have PCOS and this is the main reason why my hubby and I can’t conceive a baby. I was diagnosed with PCOS in my early teens. I had very irregular periods and was a little bit overweight. When I was in my 20s, I managed to reduce some weight, but gained again in my 30s. I do have some loose weight. I tried to do some fitness, but I didn’t help me. I also have very irregular periods. Is there anybody here with PCOS? How did you manage to conceive?

I have PCOS and conceived with 2.5mg Femera and an IUI. I am 21 weeks. I saw an RE for treatment.

When I told my OB we wanted to TTC she immediately referred us to an RE. I have PCOS and a history of no cycles at all. I was 27 when we started.
For DS1 it took 8 medicated cycles and we finally found success with IUI and injectibles (follistim).
For DS2 we were able to skip to IUI and injectibles since that is what worked the first time. It still took 2 cycles to get pregnant.

Immediately after the blood tests came in and my OB discovered I had PCOS, she referred me to an RE. We tried some IUIs but then eventually got pregnant with IVF.

I think all depends on how tough your PCOS is. I also used to have quite a lot of extra weight. My OB prescribed me metformin and it helped me to eat less and reduce my weight. When I lost up to 25 kg, I managed to conceive. I will advise you to watch your diet, hun. Try to consume less crabs. You may also work out regularly to loose weight.
