So we have been ttc since 12/2011 and I have only ovulated once on a clomid cycle :( Anyways I have been doing my low carb diet and lost 20 pounds so far. Well last night I had the inclination to take an ovulation test. And to my great surprise it was positive!!! I am not taking any meds for my PCOS just changed my diet. I was doing the same diet when we conceived my son. It is a rough lifestyle change but it has its great benefits. And now I wait to test.

    Congrats, I am doing the same diet/lifestyle change as well and so far I have lost 12 lbs and have had 2 periods back to back which has not happened since I came off BC last year. I was just wondering how long did it take you to conceive your first child after starting this diet?
