HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Polycystic ovarian syndrome is associated with increased difficulty with conception but it may still be possible to for this to occur.
Weight loss of any excess weight improves the chance of conception. There are also medications that may help eg metformin and meds to induce ovulation (clomid) if weight loss on its own is not enough.
I hope this helps
