Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

PCO – please educate me

Question:

My new RE just told me after u/s that one ovary looks polycystic (day 8).  No one has ever told this to me before.  I have been 7 yrs infertile with 2 previous RE’s  and  have undergone many medicated cycles including one failed IVF.  (DH is also a factor) Here are my symptoms. Always get a period 28- 31 days. Ovaries very tender days 12-15 (without meds). spotting 1-4 days before period. Hormone levels are normal. Ovaries were huge and did not ovulate on clomid. No problems on perg/metrodin but not a big responder. Are any of the above symptoms of PCO?  I thought if you had PCO you didn’t get periods. Are there any treatments I should be aware of? I will be undergoing IVF/ICSI in February. Thanks for any input. Janice
