Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Treatment for 'polycystic ovary syndrome' (PCOS) focuses on management infertility, hirsutism acne and obesity.
Kindly get treated by the following manner so that it would help you to overcome most of your problems.
1. Lifestyle changes by weight loss through a low-calorie diet combined with moderate exercise.
2. Regulation of menstrual cycle by use of estrogen and progestin combined birth control pills.
3. Regulation of ovulation and menstrual cycle by taking oral hypoglycemic drug metformin.
4. Induction of ovulation by administration of clomiphene.
5. Reduce excessive hair growth by birth control pills to decrease androgen production or by another medication called spironolactone.
Hope the information provided would help you to keep well.
All the best.
