Have PCOS And Using Chinese Pill To Induce Period. Unable To Get Pregnant. Should I Continue With The Pills?
hi i am 33 yr old female wth PCOS. i am using a chinese herbal pill to induce my periods, take 2 pills in morning on empty stomach. it is working but i dont get heavy flow, have regular to low flow for 3-4 days of period. but its better than no period at all.. however we are trying to get pregnant as well so recently we are not using any form of birth controls. my question is that should i continue taking period inducing pills while trying to conceive? and if i do conceive and then stop taking these pills, will it result in abortion?

Hello,
If you are getting your periods,then you may continue with these pills.
In addition do regular aerobic exercises and reduce your weight.
It is said that a reduction of 10% of your weight would result in natural periods.
It would be better yo take METFORMIN 500 mg twice a day for 6 months to reduce insulin resistance.
It would be good,if you consult a gynecologist and get a proper treatment under her.
One doesn't abort because of stoppage of such type of pills.
Thanks
