PCOS or Poly cystic ovarian syndrome may cause infertility only it causes prolonged amennorhea and related hormonal imbalance.But even prolonged amenorrhea could be corrected if the underlying hormonal imbalance is corrected.If you intend to be pregnant talk to your Doc about your chances of getting pregnant.Treatment of PCOS involve active weight reduction if more obese,Ovulatory stimulation by clomiphine.The addition of dexamethasone, to a clomiphene regimen may increase the likelihood of ovulation by suppression of ACTH and any circulating adrenal androgens. For women who are unresponsive to clomiphene,the oral hypoglycemic agents like metformin could be of little help, or pioglitazone, may bring resumption of regular cycles and ovulation. These agents reduce the hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenemia in PCOS.

These are actually medically prescribed medicines for PCOS.As this syndrome is very common in women the case is often individualised and treatment option will be processed and prescribed.Fell free to talk to your Doc.
