Brief Answer:
Metabolic disturbance causes the weight gain.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
From the history provided it seems that the weight gain that you had is related to the metabolic disturbance commonly seen with PCOS. Taking the combined pills will help in restoring your normal bleeding patterns and will prevent any further weight gain. You need to lose the extra weight to restore the hormonal balance. The treatment you are getting is correct. Once your cycles become regular then you can try for conception if needed.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
