Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this difficulty you are having trying to get pregnant. Even in women without any fertility related problem, it may take as many as 12months to succeed becoming pregnant. it is more of a game of chance and no one can actually predict with precision that a particular method would guarantee a pregnancy. However, in women with PCOS, metformin has been shown to increase their chances of conception. It would be best to ask your doctor of this as a possible treatment option.


I hope this addresses your query fully. Thank you so much for patronizing our services and please do feel free to ask for follow up clarifications and information if need be. I wish you the best of health.
