PCOS is characterized by irregular periods, delayed periods, scanty menstrual bleeding etc. You need to get yourself thoroughly investigated and treated for PCOS. Women with PCOS often have difficulty in ovulating and hence in conceiving. Weight loss and lifestyle management is the mainstay of treatment for PCOS. You have to maintain a healthy lifestyle, exercise regularly and eat sensibly. Metformin will help you regulate the condition to a certain extent. For conception and ovulation, you might require ovulation inducing agents such as clomiphene citrate. Please consult an Infertility specialist for thorough evaluation. Take care.
