Trying to conceive with pcos

Hi, does anyone have any advice or success stories about trying to conceive with pcos?
I am currently having periods every other month or so, & taking folic acid, vitamin d & evening primrose oil as I hear these help. I have clomid that hasn't been prescribed (I bought abroad over the counter) & have dong quai that is supposed to help induce on a period? (Haven't taken yet)

Has any of this worked for anyone? I don't have time for the numerous GP appts due to work. So trying my very best to do it all myself.
Also, for clomid I've read mixed comments on people taking on either days 2-6 of period but some take on days 5-9. Any advice on which days are most successful?

Thank you!

Hi I took clomid for 6 months which was prescribed due to me having PCOS and I wasn't ovulating naturally, I conceived on my 6th round (was taking clomid on days 2-6) however I then miscarriaged at 9 weeks (baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks). I don't want to take clomid again as I've since found that it can increase risk of miacarriage if taken for too long. However this is just my own personal experience 🙂
Hope you get you're bfp x
