Hi Gaurav,
To control polycystic ovarian syndrome, first thing should be weight reduction.
If even after weight reduction periods are irregular,then medications are started.
After taking medications if periods are regular,then wait for at least one year.
Even after one year if she does not conceive, then you should be worried & should think about another options like IUI, IVF.
I hope your has been answered.

Hi Kaushik,
The clinical picture is certainly that of PCOS. But what has caused her ovaries to go polycystic and where from the testosterone being produced in excess- the ovaries or the adrenal glands- you need to find out. You have mentioned that LH and FSH and thyroid profile are fine. If your wife is on overweight to obese side, or having excess, male pattern body hair, you might want to get a few more tests done- like overnight dexa suppression test, 17- OH-Progesterone test. For this, better to see an Endocrinologist once. Good luck.
