[quote=Anonymous]PP poster here- meant to also say why it actually does make sense. As explained to me by my RE, PCOS women tend to produce a lot of follicles each month, but they don't mature and therefore ovulation does not occur most of the time. Therefore, at best, PCOS patients ovulate rather infrequently. As we age, fewer follicles are produced, hormonally 'allowing' a dominant follicle to emerge and mature with more regularity than when the PCOS patient was younger. Of course, this is not true for all PCOS women (there is a lot of variability in how PCOS presents itself), but there is definitely an emerging trend. [/quote]
