Hi, I think the main problem in pco patients is absence of ovulation. So, you can track your ovulation by repeated ultrasound or by ovulation detection kits and see if ovulation is happening or not. If ovulation is happening, you can try naturally for 6 months. Be in contact with your husband every 2 to 3 days after your periods stop. You can continue metformin and duphaston. These help in supporting the pregnancy. But if ovulation is not happening, you can take some medicines like meprate or deviry like clomiphene for inducing ovulation. Talk to your doctor regarding this.
