Please tell me pregnancy is possible.

I (25F) have been recently diagnosed with PCOS. I am overweight as well. I get a period around 4-7 times a year.

Please someone with PCOS tell me I will be able to get pregnant. I planned on having kids in the next 3-5 years. I am going to spend my time until then getting as healthy and regulated as possible.

I am just discouraged and scared. Who here has PCOS and has been able to conceive naturally? I know IVF is an option, but I am pretty low middle class financially, and I don't know if I will ever have the disposable income to do that, especially since we are looking at buying a house before then.

Update: Wow I am so overwhelmed by the responses. Thank you all so much for sharing your stories. I have so much hope now! I also just scheduled an appointment with my PCP to discuss metformin and/or GLP-1 medication.

Again, thank you everyone. We are all in this together.

I have pcos and was actively on birth control and conceived my son. It was wild. I didn’t know I was pregnant until I was 5 months pregnant because I carried my weight in my tummy. Magic happens!
