I had 2 miscarries before I knew I had PCOS and the last miscarriage came about 2 months after my last son was born. That baby was a total surprise. I do ok once I get pg but getting that way is another story. I have been on the Avandia for about 3 weeks and I believe that I did ovulate this month with the help of Clomid. The little ovulation test did have 2 blue lines so we will wait and see in a few more days. Thanks for the fertlie thoughts and the same back to you and good luck TTC.
