- You might want to take a further step by testing for ovulation, aka ovulation prediction kit (OPK). They are test strips which detect LH surge in your body, which takes place 12 - 24 hours before ovulation.

- About 70% of women with PCOS have insulin resistance, supplement such as Myoinositol can help to reduce insulin resistance, restore hormonal imbalance and helps in ovulation.
Vitamin D supplementation is also advisable as 2/3 of women with PCOS has Vitamin D deficiency, which can worsen symptoms of PCOS.
PCOS is associated with chronic inflammation, supplements such as Co enzyme Q 10, Zinc and N acetyl cysteine are some powerful antioxidants which can reduce inflammation, improves ovulation and chance of pregnancy.
