Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can affect fertility, but there is hope for sufferers. Here are some steps that can help improve fertility:
- Lifestyle changes: Maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and eating a balanced diet can improve insulin resistance and hormone levels.
- Medication: Fertility drugs such as Clomid or gonadotropins can stimulate ovulation.
- Assisted reproductive technologies: In vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) can help fertilization and increase the chance of pregnancy.
- Surgery: Ovarian drilling can improve ovulation in some women with PCOS.
- Lifestyle and dietary modifications: Supplements such as Vitamin D, metformin, and herbal remedies such as myoinositol can help improve insulin resistance and regulate menstrual cycles.
It is important to consult a reproductive endocrinologist or fertility specialist for personalized treatment options and recommendations.
