Hello Dear,

1) Combined birth control pills are the mainstay of treatment of PCOS. It will help to regularize your monthly cycle.
Mild spotting is due to effect of the pill. It is quite common and normal thing for initial 1 to 2 months and first time pill-user. Maintain genital hygiene properly.
2) You must take healthy balanced diet with fresh fruits and vegetables. LOW carbohydrate diet is most preferable. Avoid fatty, salty and fast food.
