Hallo Dr. I just want to know I was diagnose with slight PCOS in October 2013 so my Dr put me on clomid an metaforim which I used for two months (October and November). Then December my period started without any medication and also in January I had a period. Then February through to May nothing. Now this month (June 2014) still nothing but my breast are sore and period like cramps, I also have nausea and had headaches and I'm extremely moody. Now my question is can I be pregnant? Or is it just my mind playing tricks on me. Thank you so much.

Have you taken any blood or urine pregnancy tests yet?

PCOS reduces your fertility but doesn't render you barren. Picture it this way, when a normally fertile couple is trying to conceive it is a coin toss; 50% pregnant 50% not pregnant. With PCOS you need to flip 5 coins have them all come up pregnant for the conception to take place. It reduces the chances of ovulating a mature and fertile egg. Once that egg is out, any sperm with the gumption and speed to fertilize it will and after that, it's all biology.
