Conceiving with PCOS: There are several medication options that can increase the likelihood of conceiving with PCOS. Taking birth control pills for 3 months can sometimes regulate your periods and increase the likelihood that you will ovulate every month. Losing weight should increase the likelihood of conceiving. Metformin is a medication that can greatly increase the likelihood of conception with PCOS.
