With a diagnoisis of PCOS, it is not uncommon to have irregular bleeding. Using birth control pills is one well known way t control your periods if you have PCOS, but if that didn't work, then there are other options. You should talk to 'your doctor about using progesterone pills to control your cycles, or maybe other birth control pills that might work better. Also, using a medicine called metformin can help in controlling your symptoms and your periods. I hope you get some relief soon! I hope this was helpful, please let me know if you have any more questions.
