Hello.. There are no reports of flax seed causing pcos...in fact flax seed has many medicinal benefits like it helps in controlling sugars,prevents heart diseases... It's rich in thiamine,phosphorous and other important amino acids as well as omega 3 and 6 fatty acids... I think taking it in small quantities have good benefits
