Oh.. and if you aren't trying to have a child, birth control should help with just regulation your periods.
I have and my boyfriends Cousin have also been diagnosed with PCOS. She is currently trying to have children and she is taking Clomid to help with ovulation. From what I have heard most women need this to have children. Hope this helps.

If you have pcos, your doctor might need to put you on Metformin to help with the symptoms and weight loss. I'm not sure if your ovulating. The only way to tell for sure is to get a blood test at cd21 to confirm if you have ovulated. I suggest to speak with your doctor and ask him/her about metformin to help with your pcos. I've been on this since 9/14/08 and have lost over 60lbs. It is also known that it could help improve your cycles over time.
