A member asked:
I've just been diagnosed with pcos and my periods are very irregular. does this mean i will never be able to get pregnant?

No: It may be more difficult compared to those without PCOS and possibly may require the use of medications to help optimize your fertility.

No!: Even if you have PCOS with irregular menses, you most likely ovulate from time to time and can get pregnant even without treatment. Treatment for the PCOS and for associated infertility increase your chances of a successful pregnancy. If you're sexually active but not ready to be a mum, don't throw out your contraception, but, when you ARE ready, don't throw out hope either!
