Brief Answer:
Yes your doctor is right.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,


Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.

Yes your doctor is right.

You can start folic acid tablets and do regular folicular scan every alternate day.

If follicles do not continue to increase (till 20-22 mm) then you have to take tablet clomiphene( if you are already not on it. )

After follicles have reached 20-22 mm injection beta hcg needs to be given for you to ovulate.

Then either you can have natural sex within 24 hours to conceive or get intrauterine insemination done. This will get you pregnant.

Dear      XXXX,

No there is no other concern as per the history you have given me.

For PCOS to conceive it needs treatment as i described.

Do not worry. You will most probably get pregnant if you follow the treatment.
