PCOD is basically a condition of hormonal imbalance leading to anovulatory cycles meaning even though you may get periods; you're not ovulating. Ovulation is mandatory for a pregnancy to happen. It is important to know the severity of your PCOS, your age as well as your BMI. Overweight PCOS women would find it easy to conceive with lifestyle modification to get into a healthy BMI range. In some women, only lifestyle modification would lead to ovulation and hence conception.
Even if lifestyle modification does not lead to ovulation, it certainly helps to improve response to ovulation inducing medicines and also is helpful in avoiding pregnancy related complications.
Next Steps
Have a trans-vaginal ultrasound done on the 2nd / 3rd day of the cycle as well as a hormonal analysis on the same day to determine the severity of PCOS. See that your husband is also evaluated for fertility issues.
Health Tips

Treatment of infertility associated with PCOD may involve lifestyle modification, taking of ovulation inducing drugs, surgical intervention in rare cases and assisted reproductive techniques in some.
