Hello,
Well PCOS is a very common concern.
For reducing weight avoid carbohydrate foods, intake of fruits, proteins and regular excercise - even if it is moderate is good.
Take small frequent meals instead of three heavy meals.
The treatment takes time to act and show results,15 days is a very little time.Be patient.
For excessive ahir along with the tablets you can opt for Laser hair reduction, after discussing with your dermatologist.
Take Care
Regards

hi,Yamini is an oral contraceptive pill and will help only if youhave irregular periods. This can have several side effects like Nausea, vomiting, bleeding between menstrual periods, weight gain, breast tenderness and thrombophlebitis, stroke, heart attack and angina pectoris, headache. Conceiving would not be possible when your wife is taking this tablet. If there is a problem conceiving, please see a gynaeoclogist. A detailed history and examination is needed.
Hope this helps
