PCOS success stories

Basically that. Having been TTC for over a year, I've just been told I have PCOS (bizarrely after having regular cycles for 17 years until the start of this year) DH has a date for his test. Does anybody have any success stories about becoming pregnant while suffering from PCOS? This is all new to me so I'd like to know what's coming next and just a bit of positivity, please.

Diagnosed with PCOS last year: regular cycles but absolutely horrific cystic acne, which prompted the investigation. Came off the pill last November and now 17 weeks pregnant naturally so it can definitely happen!

In the interim I improved my diet a bit (it was never terrible) and tried to go to the gym a little more than I was before.

Good luck!

Despite having been told by two different GPs that I had very little chance of conceiving without medical intervention, I did just that within two or three cycles of coming off the pill.

Good luck

I am reading this woman's book and she says that she has had a lot of success treating women with PCOS through diet and lifestyle. Good luck
