Hello I ve not had a period in a few months and my body feels funny and I have polycystic ovaries and low thyriod. I would like to have a period and get my body back to normal. As far as I know my body is being looked after as I m on medication for my thyroid but I ve been gone a few months with no bleeding plus my moods are up and down is there anything to help me plus I am sleeping to much and get hungry and tired easily but I know I m definatly not pregnant. Thanks Hannah

Hello dear
I understand your concern
PCOS cause hormonal imbalance and that lead to menstrual irregularity.
You must consult the gynecologist for better treatment.
Following are the aims of treatment:
Regularize the cycle, Decrease insulin resistance, Induction of ovulation
Treatment of hormone imbalance and Reduce the weight
Drugs:
Metformin: for maintain glucose homeostasis and weight, induce ovulation
Oral contraceptive pills: regular the menstrual cycle
Clomiphene citrate to induce ovulation and maintain fertility
FSH hormone or FSH analogue for infertility treatment.
In vitro fertilization for infertility problem
If not responds to medical treatment surgery like ovarian drilling can be used
Diet: take small frequent meal rather large meal
Avoid fatty/spicy/salty foods
Avoid excessive sweets
Start regular exercise for 45-60 minutes in the morning
Continue the treatment of thyroid dysfunction
Hope this may help you
