I have pcos, and have been trying to conceive for many years, still no luck. Has anyone else found a way to still conceive? How will it be possible?Pcos is poly cystic ovarian syndrome, basically I have several cysts on my ovaries.

It is definately possible, I have PCOS and am 17 weeks pregnant.A friend of mine with PCOS has two beautiful boys.My Husband and I were not trying for a baby and then out of the blue, there is was. I had been taking Metformin, if that helps.

Yes there is hope. It might be a little hard but not impossible. Have you gone to see a Dr. The Drs. recommendations might be loosing weight (if over weight), regulate period with birth control, then might put you on Clomid (medication that will help you ovulate). He might do other test to make sure that everything else is ok. If you don't get your period regularly try to loose weight and do a low carb diet. PCOS is insulin related so eating less carbs will help. Hope this helps and good luck!!! It worked for me!!

I have PCOS and I am pregnant. The metformin didn't work for me, it didn't agree with my system. Though I have heard that a lot of women with PCOS and metformin have conceived. I actually just got pregnant naturally after about 2 to 2 and a half years. I had taken some progestrone to start my period and I think I got pregnant when I was taking it and my doctor did say that it could've helped but we can't be positive. Good luck and I hope that you find something that works for you.

Have you gone to see a fertility specialist yet? If you haven't, now would be a good time to go see one. There are many things about PCOS that can cause you to not get pregnant, so finding out what you need to do to change things will help.There are medications out now that really do work and can help. But getting the testing to figure out what you need is the best bet for them to find a way for you to have a baby.I have dealt with many women with this, and the possibility now of you conceiving are very good. All you need is a game plan, and a way to make that happen.
