My doctor said PCOS can make ovulation unpredictable and sometimes needs medicine support to conceive. She also monitored me a bit more during pregnancy for sugar levels. So it can affect but its manageable with proper follow up.

I was just diagnosed with PCOS and got so worried reading this online. Its comforting to hear others conceived. I have started treatment and trying to stay hopeful.

Dont lose hope dear, PCOS is very common these days. So many girls I know had it and have lovely babies now. Just stay regular with your doctor and take care of your weight and diet.

It can, but its manageable. A good gynac makes all the difference.

I have PCOS and yes it took us a bit longer to conceive, but it happened. It can affect ovulation so cycles get irregular, but with the right guidance many of us conceive fine. I wont promise anything, just please work closely with a good gynac, it really helps.
