Hi Brandy,
PCOS is something that needs to be handled by a gynecologist, family doctors and general practicioners have little to no experience with PCOS as I've found and generally aren't very up to date with the latest treatments. There are a number of treatments out there, the one I currently am on and has worked from the very first month I started is Metformin which is also used to treat type II diabetes (though I am not diabetic), it treats insulin resistance which is associated with the syndrome and a lot of the hormonal issues are resolved with it. I used to go months without a period as well and since being put on this treatment I have had periods regularly almost on the same day every month! Fertility treatments are a big help, but you also would want to directly treat your PCOS because there are life long risk factors by letting it go...My gynecologist informed me and also through all the research I've done I've learned that untreated it can actually lead to ovarian cancer down the line in some cases and other health complications. Also miscarriage in women with PCOS who aren't being treated is reportedly 30%+ higher than in women without it. I would definitely treat your PCOS issue first and foremost and really speak to a gynecologist.
