As a PCOS sufferer, you may be experiencing fertility problems. From our research with Hospital Consultants and PCOS volunteers, we have found the following advice proved to be very successful. If you are trying for a baby, why not try these tips, they have worked for others and they could help you.

First of all, it is a good idea to work out a pre-conception plan. Most couples don’t have sex at the right time and frequency to achieve a pregnancy. Here are some tips. If your periods are regular (28 days from the start of one to the start of another), you should try to have regular intercourse, every other day, if possible, from Day 11 to Day 17. This is timed from the start of the first day of your last period. One week before this time of the month, both partners should get plenty of sleep and avoid intercourse altogether, until your reach Day 11...


Do's
Have more sex, but at the correct time of the month, as stated above.
Try to relax more, take up yoga or have a relaxing bath before bed.
Lavender essence under the pillow helps some PCOS sufferers to relax more. You can experiment with your own personal fragrance. Avoid strong fragrances.
Try to have proper nutrition. Lose weight if you are overweight, but avoid strict diets that can result in poor health. As a PCOS sufferer it is important that you have your metabolic rate assessed and your diet should be prepared to suit you personally, by professionals. It is an established fact that women with PCOS have a slower metabolism than non-sufferers, so a personal diet is essential. Vitaline can do this. Log on to www.pcos-vitaline.com.

Don'ts
Don’t drink coffee or drinks containing caffeine.

Don’t become obsessed. It can take some time, please be patient.
Don’t drink diet drinks, they contain artificial sweeteners called aspartame which is a broken down product of formaldehyde or embalming fluid and can affect sperm production in men and menstrual cycle in women.
Don’t stint on the right food. It is important to eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. A good percentage of protein foods and a balance of the right carbohydrates is also required.
