Difficulty in conceiving
I have pcod which causes irregular periods, no other symptom as such. We are trying for pregnancy since last 6 months but no success yet. What should be the next step? Should i take some treatment to regularise periods. Also i have been having healthy lifestyle since last 3 months doing exercise and lost weight also but still my periods are very much irregular. What are the options available if i want to conceive soon??

Just regularising periods won’t help. In pcos the main issue is with egg development, which if not happened there is no chance of pregnancy.
Next Steps
1.Lifestyle modification: Continue your exercise routine Take high protein diet like egg whites, sprouts, green leafy vegetables Limit carbohydrates like rice, sugars Drink plenty of water 3-4 litres per day Avoid junk food 2. Get your harmones fsh and lh done on day 2 of your period. 3. Tubal evaluation is required, hsg test on day 7 of your period 4. Husband semen analysis 5.You can take tablets for ovulation induction that is letrozole 2.5 mg twice a day for 5 days starting on day 2 of your period and go for follicular study with doctor guidance to check the egg development on day 9,11 and you can take an injection for egg release depending on the egg size and you can try in that period which increases the chance of pregnancy. You can try in this method for atleast 3 months. If there is no result, you need to step up your treatment.
Health Tips
Next steps can be taking injectables after oral medication followed by iui.
