Birth control pills regulate and shorten irregular cycles, but they don't induce ovulation. In fact, they pause ovulation while you're on them.
Next Steps
For actual ovulation induction, your gynaecologist will look at your case and pick a medicine suited to you, which is different from a birth control pill.
Health Tips
With PCOS for 10 years and mixed pill tolerance before, please make this decision with your doctor in person rather than restarting anything on your own.
