hi yes it can help to clear some of the symptoms of PCOS..heres some information i pasted from another site
contraceptive pill called Dianette®. Dianette® is commonly prescribed to regulate periods, to help reduce hair growth, to reduce acne, and is a good contraceptive.
◦The combined contraceptive pill Yasmin® (a combination of ethinylestradiol and drospirenone) has been shown to help if Dianette® is not suitable.
◦Other antitestosterone drugs are sometimes advised by a specialist if the above treatments do not help.
So does the pill contraceptive pill help the polycistic overies syndrome?
Hi there!
I have PCOS and was on medication, to get regular periods, for nearly 10years.For last 1.5years I have stopped medication and I get my periods but not on regular basis of 21-28days, this gap goes upto 2-3months also for me.Yes after I stopped medication immediately there was heavy breakouts at my back for a year,I still have my back full of marks.Doctor said it was because of hormone change and gave a gel to apply on the pimples.I even gained weight aftr I stopped medication.
Being on pills has many side effect, so I dont want to continue it back again.
As in your case I fear it might be PCOS, Go and check up with a Gync and get your hormone level checked.
Hi there,
I have been off the pill for six months. I do get my period but I knew something was not right because I did not show any signs of ovulation. I, like you, got severe acne, and I mean severe. I finally went to the doctor due to my acne, plus my hair was thinning. They did a bunch of blood tests and my testosterone level came back high. I was just recently diagnosed with PCOS. If I were you I would continue to pursue the issue, with your same doctor or see someone else. I was going to the doctor for the past 3 months and I kept getting blown off, even though there really was something wrong. Did they test your testosterone level when they did all those blood tests?
