Sujatha,
I was talking about basal body temperatures. If you take your
temperature every morning at the same time before you get up with a
basal thermometer you should see a shift indicating ovulation. Some
woman with pcos don't have luck with it but I have in the past.
Clomid is a drug that will help with make you ovulate - it doesn't work
for everyone. My doctor said that about 1/3 of woman with pcos get pg
on clomid.
I'm not sure what about the measurements of cysts. I think someone else
maybe able to help you with that =)
