Poly cystic ovary. Pills to start it!

Thank you for your question. I would urge you to see a gynaecologist specialising in fertility issues and endocrinology. The evidence around PCOD is changing a lot because of lot of research. One thing is certain that getting regular bleeds and keeping the ovary quiet is crucial to protecting ovarian health. The combined pill is the best way to do this. It also protects your endometrium by shedding regularly. You also need supportive treatment to manage the metabolic consequences of PCOD. This includes daily exercise, diet, relaxation or meditation and correct supplements. Please select from www.patient.co.uk any leaflets that will help you manage your health better. Wikipedia is also a good resource although all information on there is not necessarily by experts. You can choose sites like RCOG, ACOG, etc for patient leaflets that are evidence based.
