OBGYN 's  Response
I think the answer in your case is PCOS - polycystic ovarian syndrome.
It is characterized by baseline hormonal imbalance, due to which the ovaries get studded with lots of cysts.
The periods are irregular, ovulation is unpredictable.
Obimet might help in weight loss, nothing can replace diet and exercise.
They are key treatments for PCOS.
Take care.
