No Periods from 2 years

I am 36 years old and weigh 165 lbs 5.1" . I have not been getting menses from past two years and my doctor here has diagnosed me with PCOS and has suggested me metformin and birth control pill to regularize my periods. I am scared about having metformin and birth control, can you suggest if this treatment is safe? or any other? we are TTC soon.

Hi. Both metformin and birth control pills are both safe. If you get periods after birth control pills, it's a good sign
