How PCOS affects fertility

  • It’s common for people diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) to worry about their ability to become pregnant, even if they don’t want to be pregnant any time soon
  • . Knowing that there are options available to become pregnant can help reduce anxiety

What PCOS?

  • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder common among women of reproductive age.
  • Women with PCOS may have infrequent or prolonged menstrual periods or excess male hormone (androgen) levels.
  • The ovaries may develop numerous small collections of fluid (follicles) and fail to regularly release eggs

Medications and treatments for PCOS?


  • After other reasons for infertility, such as blocked fallopian tubes, fibroids, or low sperm count,have been ruled out, a healthcare provider may prescribe medications to induce ovulation in someone with PCOS who is trying to conceive.
  • Metformin is a medication that makes it easier for the body to use the insulin it makes, decreasing the amount of insulin in the bloodstream.
  • Metformin is used for people with PCOS to stimulate ovulation 
  • Clomiphene and letrozole are medications that induce ovulation
  • Metformin and clomiphene used together result in higher rates of ovulation, pregnancy, and birth than either medication used alone 
  • If you’re trying to become pregnant, It’s important to time sex to ovulation when using these medications.
  • Ovulation is likely to occur 13-15 days before the start of the next period 
  • Tracking your cycle, your basal body temperature daily, and taking at-home ovulation tests that measure luteinizing hormone (LH) can help you determine your fertile window and ovulation.
  • If weight loss and ovulation stimulation with medications are not successful, there are other options.
  • Surgery performed on the ovaries called laparoscopic ovarian drilling involves a surgeon making small holes in the ovary with heat or a laser 
  • This surgery is as effective as medication at increasing the rates of ovulation and pregnancy, and is sometimes used as an option when medication alone hasn’t worked 
  • Another option is in vitro fertilization (IVF) where eggs are retrieved from the ovaries surgically, combined with sperm in a laboratory to create an embryo that is then transferred to the uterus
