I keep wondering about doctors knowledge of PCOS. Naturally there is a link between miscarriage and PCOS, better to say several links. 1: The disturbed LH/FSH balance 2: Increased insulin causing increased androgens 3: Low progesterone 4: Diabetes alone increases thew risk of misc. and fetal abnormalitis The specific treatment is metformin if you are TTC, because the other insulin sensitizers' fetal risk is unknown. I would wait with clomid at least for 6 mo, because metformin alone induces ovulation. For your and your dr's info
