Maybe: We usually do not use estrogen and Progesterone to help you get pregnant. These may be to get a menses before medication for ovulation induction (to get you to ovulate). Most pcos women respond to medication. See a specialist to get the best advice - the doctor who gave you e & p should be able to explain what they are doing.
