I was diagnosed 3 weeks ago with PCOS. I was put on Prometrium 200mg. But I have to take it 28 days of each month in an attempt to lower elevated testosterone as well as increase the projesterone. I still have acne,cysts and mood swings. However pelvic pain and heart burn are gone and I have more energy. The start of weight loss has not occured. Hoping for better days.
