Hi,

Welcome to HCM. I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

The doctor has started you on Krimson (oral contraceptive pills) because they are the first line treatment in PCOD. I accept that these are associated with side effects. Still if you can tolerate them that will be of help to you.

If you cant tolerate hormones the next options are:

1, Metformin at doses 1000-3000 mg/day
2, Myo ionositol, other herbal preparations - doubtful role
3, Anti androgens - aldactone and finasteride.

Please discuss with your doctor regarding this.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
