I have diagnosed with pcos since 1 year. I did not consulted any doctor yet. My sister had similar prob previously and she advised me to take the same medicine what she is taking. (Crominac). Since i'm trying to conceive I did not take anything. But now wish to take medicines to get pregnancy. What shall I take for it? Is clomifene citrate is good for me?
