Specializes in Obstetrics & Gynecology

Still Possible: Pcos is defined by irregular menstrual cycles and signs of hyperandrogenism. You don't have to have polycystic ovaries to have the syndrome. Infertility is commonly seen with pcos, but there is always a possibility of pregnancy if you happened to ovulate that month. You may need to be placed on a medication called metformin to help with the Insulin resistance and help with ovulation.
