Brief Answer:
Weight reduction is the only treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes PCOD is a common but very difficult to treat problem.
It may have no effect on menstruation, fertility or weight but can lead to profound effects in the form of irregular cycles, infertility and weight gain.
Actually the relationship of weight gain is very complex and deep.
More the weight, more is Polycystic nature of ovaries and vice the versa.
The only way to deal with polycystic ovaries is an active lifestyle and weight reduction.
In case you have any other question please feel free to ask.

Brief Answer:
Diet and exercise

At this stage our target is not to control regularity of periods and rather I'm more concerned about the weight gain (surely you too).
