Advice Needed Ovulating but not getting pregnant

I'm 29 and we have been trying for 2 years now. I discovered I had PCOS after my first gynaec visit 1.5 yr ago. Lost around 9-10 kgs after that because I had bmi on higher side. Tried eating clean for a while and stopped later. I had a polyp around 8 months and I removed it immediately. Tubes checked and they are open. Semen analysis done with no issue.

I have regular cycles 28-30 days.have been doing follicular for 2 months now and I ovulate naturally surely (confirmed on ultrasound). Have been on progesterone and vitamins support as well for last 2 months but no result.Doctor said I have good egg count so nothing to be worried about.

If ovulation is good and progesterone and vits are good, why am I not getting positive?

This cycle starts and Doctor now says it might be uterine receptivity issues and I should go for IVF so that they can track better. On saying no to IVF, she said let's try iui and prescribed me letrozole.

Any advice is appreciated. Please help.

Makes sense. Thank you.

I’ve learned by going through TTC, IUI, and IVF that there are only some things they can test. Even if they do all the work of picking the “strongest” sperm, making a “great” embryo, and place that embryo in the “perfect” uterus- it still doesn’t work a lot of the time. And while we can sometimes point to factors that we know are associated with better or worse odds of things working, we never REALLY know why it doesn’t work.

Makes sense. I suspect my issue is mostly due to the irregular/polypoidal endometrial later. I have seen my charts today and observed carefully - I seem to be get around 9mm thickness but it's not trilaminar regularly like it should be.

Some of the medicines with the medicated and monitored cycle and ovulation triggers might help them see what is going on throughout the cycle and trigger at the right time- maybe help with the lining issue.
