Hi
It took my 6 cycles to get pregnant. First ended in miscarriage. This
one is my 7th cycle. I am 10wks tomorrow. I did not respond to clomid.
Instead took metphormin, letrisol and puregon. If you find out more
info on proper diet and nutrition for pregnant women with PCO please let
me know. Thanks!!! Good luck -- the fact that you ovulated is a great
indication!!!
