Yes: the first medicine to try is metformin which helps encourage ovulation; if that does not work ovulation induction is sometimes necessary with clomid (clomiphene) and/ or other drugs. the issue with pcos is that women are often anovulatory. if you are overweight, weight loss can also help encourage the body to ovulate

PCOS Treatment: Diet and exercise are 1st treatments for PCOS. Medicines are reserved for those with anovulation, hirsutism, and menstrual irregularities. These include oral contraceptives, metformin, prednisone, leuprolide, clomiphene, and spironolactone. A reproductive endocrinologist should be consulted if you are infertile and desire pregnancy.
