PCOS and trying to conceive

[Dyuti]

Dear Dr.,

I have been trying to get pregnant since last year.Did 3 cycles on Clomid with 250mg and 4 cycles on Bravelle followed by HCG.I did ovulate but did not get pregnant.
I am now 31 years old.My REI said that the FSH was good but could not understand why I did not get pregnant.
I have PCOS.I am also tkaing 800 mg metformin.Had my fasting blood sugar tested and it was normal.My husbands sperm count was a little low -17million.
Can you please advice what might me another reason for me not being able to conceive.
Recently I have started exercing and stopped by birth control pills(which I took for 4 months in between).I want to try naturally for a year before I move on to IVF.Does a patient like me with PCOS and on metformin have chances of conceiving naturally with exercising and losing weight?

I have a 4 year old son.I conceived him following a clomid IUI cycle.I had a C section and my doctor said she had cauterized the cysts on my ovaries .However last year I also had a HSG and there were no abnormal findings.Does this mean that I have scarring over my ovaries and the eggs are not getting released.

Please advice.
Thanks

Hi!  If you click on forums scroll to the top of the page and on the right side it should say "Ask a doctor forums" go down to the fertility/infertility forum and click on it. You should be able to post questions from there. Good luck!!!

Hi,Thanks for letting me know.But I havent been able to locate the "medical forum".When I try to post a question it gives me a few choice with "fertility,infertility,csection and few more".So i chose infertility.Can you help me out as to exactly where I should post my question.Thanks
