  1. Hi from ICLW! Your cycles sound a lot like mine...long, but no diagnosed PCOS. Like you, I also started acupuncture and was also asked to not drink cold water (very difficult)! I got fed up with the long cycles and had my doc put me on Femara. I used to ovulate on day 27/28 and now I am down to a respectable 16/17 with the meds! I am not sure if they have that available in Australia, but you might want to check it out. Best of luck to you. I hope that the acu helps you!
