HI,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
To get a regular menstrual cycle with ovulation should be the aim of treating PCOD.
You are taking Metformin- this should be accompanied by low calory diet schedule & routine exercises , in order to reduce weight.... for with weight loss the problem of insulin resistance & hormonal imbalance causing the PCOD would be under control.
Taking medicine like Ovamit ( chlomiphene citrate ) to induce follicle maturity & ovulation .. is next stem in management of PCOD .
Consultation of gynecologist is essential for step by step treatment of PCOD ) You may be advised for INJ, hcg for ovulation as per need.
If nothing acts laproscopic drilling surgery maybe needed.
Conception is possible naturally after cure of pcod & attening normal menses, That way it can happen at any step of treatment ... but it's advised to avoid that for possibility of multiple pregnancies ( Twins, trplets etc.)
Thanks.
