Hello
The main characteristic feature of PCOD is androgen excess manifesting as hirsutism and acne with obesity ( as facial hairs and weight in your case) with GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE .
Since you have done 9 laser sittings for facial hairs and weight is still a problems , so consult your endocrinologist and he will find out the other reasons of pcod beside hormonal changes , other reasons of pcod are:
Cushing's syndrome , hyperthyroidism ,hypothyroidism ,late onset adrenal hyperplasia or other different type of ovarian tumors.
Since your weight is not under control and it is nor decreasing so consult your endocrinologist and find out exact reason of pcod and there after treatment will be useful for weight reduction.
Hope this will help you.
Birth control pill and metformin tablets are very useful treatment for pcod.
