Hi,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
Clomid is ovulation inducing drug. But many people with pcos sometimes won't respond to clomid. This is common. So next step would be combining clomid with fsh injection.
Duphaston helps endometrium to prepare for pregnancy. If pregnancy doesn't happen then period comes. If pregnancy occur then duphastone prevent early abortion.
Though you ovulate if sperm can't meet the egg fertilisation wont occur. I would advice you to get your husband semen analysis. If it is normal along with clomid and fsh go for IUI.
Yes IUI increase chances of pregnancy as here sperms are washed and placed in uterus.
I suggest you to reduce weight as that help in ovulation a lot .
Hope I have been helpful .
