Is there no natural way of conceiving with PCOS?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

If you are having post-coital bleeding and going to do a PAP (Papanicolaou test) smear, then it is advisable to be abstinent from sex for at least a week before the procedure. In the condition of PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), it is difficult to lose weight and you have difficulty in conceiving. But it is not impossible. You are doing a good job. Try to have weight reduction. Continue doing it to reduce your weight. Hormonal imbalance causes PCOS and it gets corrected by having weight loss. It increases your chances of getting pregnant. IVF (in-vitro fertilization) is not only an option for PCOS. It is the final option.

You need to maintain your weight after weight loss. By taking medication, you can expect a natural conception. If it is not possible or difficult, you can go for IVF. Even before undergoing IVF, you have to lose weight. Your periods will be irregular until your PCOS is not under control. If you want to have weight loss before conception, you can consider taking hormone pills. Having pregnancy at an ideal weight helps to have safe pregnancy for both baby and mother. Weight loss with PCOS is very slow and so try to have an exercise regime including yoga, cardio, weight training, HIIT (high-intensity interval training) workout, and different exercises to have some weight control. Try to stick to home-cooked meals Try to take small meals at shorter intervals. You need to sacrifice junk foods.
