Most medical device companies don’t speak directly to patients.
We’re changing that.
It’s our goal to be a source, a support system, and a solution to as many people with PCOS as possible.
Did You Know?
- It’s Been Almost Two Decades Since We’ve Seen a New Treatment for PCOS-Related Infertility
- PCOS Is the Leading Cause of Infertility
- Different Healthcare Providers Use Different Criteria to Diagnose PCOS
Getting Diagnosed
If PCOS is suspected, your healthcare provider will do two or more of the following:
- Speak with you about menstrual irregularities, such as light periods or skipped periods.
- Run a blood test to check for high levels of androgens that do not result from other causes or conditions, or check for signs of high androgens (e.g., excess body or facial hair).
- Do an ultrasound to check for multiple cysts of a specific size on one or both ovaries.
Your Treatment Options
There are currently four options for treating PCOS-related infertility. If you’re seeking treatment, the one that’s right for you depends on a number of factors. Here are a few that you might want to consider:
| Hormone Based | Multiple Procedures Required | Risk of Multiples | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Letrazole | X | X | |
| In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) | X | X | X |
| Clomiphene Citrate | X | X | |
| Gonadotropins | X | X |
