I have PCOS and I am more afraid of never becoming pregnant and watching everyone else around me having babies really hurts. There is no one that I can talk to about this and I want to have children and have tried Clomid and Metformin and nothing has happened and I just need someone to reassure me that this is not the end and that I will have a baby....

Insulin resistance is the main cause of PCOS. If you can reverse insulin resistance you can reverse PCOS and have improved chances to get pregnant. Major cause of insulin resistance is a diet high in simple carbohydrates and sugars. I would look for a registered HOLISTIC nutritionist in your area. They are aware of this issue and are trained to manage it nutritionally using specially formulated supplements and personalised meal planes. I wouldn't go to a dietitian who supports the idea of traditional food pyramid since it won't help with PCOS and can even worsen the condition.
