    For women with PCOS to help induce ovulation can use clomiphene or letrozole and maybe metformin. This can help those who desire pregnancy.

    In PCOS the ovaries and adrenal produce excess androgen which is converted to estrogen. Estrogen inhibits FSH but enhances LH secretion which in turn stimulate ovary to produce more androgen. It’s a vicious cycle. Letrozole helps to distrust that cycle.
