I also have PCOS. We have been trying on our own for a few years. Finally went to a fertility clinic and found my dh also has a low sperm count so we decided on IUI. With the help of Clomid I was blessed with 2 beautiful eggs (1 on each side) we had IUI yesterday and I'm praying for good news come March 9th. I know many people who have had success and they have PCOS. Keep trying and keep praying!

Hello,
The primary fertility problem with PCOS is the lack of ovulation. Glocophage/ metformin and fertility medicines like Clomid are often prescribed in PCOS. You can go in for IVF also.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
