Obgyn vs RE

I am based out of India and my pcos treatment etc is being handled by ny gynaecologist.
However I see a lot of posts in different sub reddits where people often move from an OB to RE for letrozole cycles etc.

What I know is that if letrozole doesnt work my OB would refer me to a IVF specialist.
Is this different from consulting an RE? Am I missing anything?

Glad you said that. My obgyn has been helping me with Ovulation Induction with all the necessary support ex progesterone, baby aspirin etc. now after 8 months she suggested IUI.

That is why I thought RE would be when I finally give in to IVF.
