Question Thin cyster looking for advice...

Here is a little background on myself:
I am 24 years old and DH is 28. I have always been thin although I have gained weight this year. My two older sisters both have PCOS, so I was very concerned when I went off of BCP to ttc last August and didn't have a period for almost 5 months. Since my sisters both have it, I convinced my doctor to give me a test. Sure enough the ultrasound showed cysts. I then had my period induced and started on Clomid. I did 50, 100, and 150 mg of Clomid ovulating every time but none of the cycles resulted in a pregnancy.
The let down started to get to me and I decided the best thing to do was to take a break for now and maybe go back to Clomid in the start of the new year. However, the way I see it, I have 2 options. (a) go back on BCP and have a regular period for sure or (b) try the natural approach with herbs. My questions is, what herbal medicine helped you get your period? How quick did it work? I was thinking about doing Vitex, Dong Quai, and Cinnamon (however, I would talk to the doctor before starting anything).
I just wanted to get your opinions and advice---and possibly hear some success stories!!
Thanks!
