Brief Answer:
It is NOT the cure, Need more details

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.

PCOD means polycystic ovarian disease.

It is a condition of baseline hormonal disturbance, leading to small cysts in the ovaries, irregular cycles and infrequent and unpredictable ovulation.
The tablets help to improve the condition, but it is not the cure.

Please let me know a few more details.
1. What is your height and weight?
2. Since how long are you taking the medications.
3. What all investigations have been done so far? Please upload them.
4. Are you married and do you wish to have aid in conception, or is it just irregular cycles that are bothering you?

Please write back with these details so that I can guide you regarding further course of treatment and investigations.
Take care.

Brief Answer:
WORKUP NEEDED.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for the updates.

You need to reduce your weight, atleast 5 - 10 kgs. Weight loss is essential to regulate your cycles, even 5 % reduction in body weight will lead to regular cycles in more than 90 % of women. Please consult a Dietician for a Diet chart and engage a personal trainer for dedicated exercise (atleast 45 minutes of intense aerobic exercise atleast 5 days a week).


You need to have complete investigations for PCOD. Let me list it for you. Consult a reputed gynecologist in your city (you could tell me where you stay and I might be able to suggest somebody).

The workup is -
1. Complete check up and pelvic transperineal / transrectal scan on day 2 of cycle
2. FSH, LH on day 2 of periods.
3. TSH, Prolactin, OGTT, DHEAS, Free testosterone, Lipid profile, Fasting serum insulin.
Metformin should be taken to maintain control of PCOD.
Once you get married, you should plan a pregnancy earlier, since PCOD can lead to difficulty in conception.

You should not worry as there are excellent treatment options to help you conceive.
Take care.
