Hi, the problem in pcos patients is with ovulation. So, you need to take some medicines like clomiphene for the growth of your follicles. Duphaston will not help in growth of your follicles. It will only support the implantation. So, track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound after taking clomiphene and when your follicles is more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles. Be in contact with your husband for 2 to 3 days after injection. Take duphaston for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that. You can try like that for 3 to 6 months. Hope I have answered your question.
