Hello again.
I agree with what doctor Purushottam has said. I think that we have told nearly the same. But what I do not agree with, is the fact that PCOS is only a lifestyle related problem because the etiology is yet still not sure and many theories exist. But in a situation where a couple is trying for 1.5 years for a pregnancy, we are talking about infertility and I think that only lifestyle changes are not enough. I have mentioned trying to loose wight (exercise and vegetables/water included), ultrasound for the follicle growth track and intercourse around the ovulation, so we are saying the same thing.
Thank you.
