Hi I have gone through your question.
Thanks for writing us in health care magic.
As you are suffering from pcod, in that insulin resistance develops which cause increase sugar in blood and produce diabetic picture.
So weight reduction is your first priority, and also help in reducing diabetic medications.
If medicines dont work then injection can be started for ovulations.
Lossing weight also help in getting free from depression also.
So my advise that weight reduction will be a better option.
Have a good health.
