Hi,
Thanks for your question.
I do understand your pain and discomfort.
as per your question i may say for PCOS DuPhaston[ dydrogesterone] is correct .
Let me briefly tell you what further can be done-:
a)Reduce your body weight at least 5%
b)Take this pill to regularise your periods
c)Discuss about your primary doctor to add [Metformin]
d)after 4 month of treatment if you like to conceive tell your doctor to add clomiphene to stimulate your ovary, if that fails then FSH or LH will be given as injection.If every methods fail then Letrozole will be added.
e)Tell your dietitian to make a diet plan for you high fiber carbohydrates.
