Can I take fish oil pills?

I have polycystic ovarian syndrome. However, since about 3-4 months post op ( I am 8 months post-op now) I have had a period every month even though they don't come equal lengths apart yet. As of recently I have lost 102 lb. and have been told that it would be okay, however not recommended, to try and get pregnant. A friend of mine who also has PCOS told me that after 8 1/2 years of trying to get pregnant she recently found out that they are. She said that she read that fish oil is supposed to help with fertility in PCOS people and that she had just began taking it when she found out that she's pregnant. I already bought the pills but I am afraid to start taking them because I am not sure if it will effect my pouch negatively. Does anyone know if it's okay to take fish oil? Also, for those who have taken it, how did it effect you? Thanks, Angie
