Have you talked to your doctor about trying to get pregnant? Some people
with PCOS are able to get pregnant. I have 2 children but it took 2 and
1/2 years to get pregnant the first time with the help of Clomid. The
month I got pregnant was the first time I had ever ovulated. I would
definitely check first with your doctor before giving up all hope.
