Suggest Treatment For PCOS While On Primolut N

Hi, I have read your question, and understand your concerns. There is a lot of help and options available for your condition, so please do not feel helpless or upset. I know it could be hard for you dealing with PCOS and its complications but with proper treatment and positive approach, we can bring this syndrome under our control. The treatment usually depends on whether you want to get pregnant or not. For those who wish to get pregnant, they can use primolut N to regulate their menstrual cycle. On the other hand, those who do not want to get pregnant, Oral Contraceptive Pills (OCPs) are the best options. These pills can regulate the cycle as well as reduce the blood levels of androgens and thus leads to lesser hair growth. I also recommend Metformin to my patients which has been proven to be effective in the treatment of PCOS. The role of exercise, diet and weight loss/control can not be denied and it is always recommended that patients with PCOS adopt a healthy lifestyle which also helps with stress reduction. For the excessive hair growth, there is a drug in cream form called Eflornithine which can be applied twice a day to the hairy parts of your skin like face or arms and trunk. There are other drugs also available for excess hair problem such as finasteride, spironolactone etc. which can only be prescribed by a doctor. So, I would recommend that you see a gynecologist and discuss your desires and concerns with him/her, who will then decide on further management. Please do not involve in self-treatment and refrain from too much negative thoughts about your condition. Hope this helps, and please feel free to ask any further clarification when needed.
