abnormal bleeding
Hey so I am kind of new to PCOS I was diagnosed back in April this might be a long but I really need advice!
so far I have lost 40 pounds taking Metformin (sp?) also diet and exercise. My doctor also had put me on Gianvi as a birth control and it worked awesome everything was finally regular until my drugstore had changed my birthcontrol to larnya which is another version of Gianvi but halfway through the month I started to bleed I thought it was breakthrough bleeding so my doctor put me on Beyaz and told me to take 2 a day until the bleeding stopped and then the next month they will put me back on Gianvi or on Yaz (which is technically still the same thing)She also said I could skip the iron pills and skip my actual period because I had been bleeding. 2 weeks later I finally stop bleeding and this past Monday I started the new pack and today I get my period again!
So now I dont know what to do, do I just say screw it and take the iron pills and give myself a period or keep taking the actual pills and hope it stops the bleeding .
Has anyone else had abnormal bleeding problems. It puts me in a horrible mood and its getting really anoying. I dont know how much more of this I can take :(

my doctor just said the same thing for the past week she took me off of the birth control and today I am supposed to start the Gianvi again- I really hope this helps
