Dear member,
Thanks for writing.
The condition you are having is called polycystic ovarian syndrome where ovarian multiple cysts are present due to hormonal imbalance.
The femilon is a contraception pill but in your case it also helps in suppression of ovaries and regulation of menstrual cycles.
The medication has to be taken for atleast 3 cycles to be effective.
Folic acid is to help conceiving later.
Thanks
