hi again,

yes, i've been to the doctor, had tests done and it's definitely just yeast. many other people i've spoken with say my problem is probably the bc pills. i recently switched to ortho-cept and like it because it's done a wonderful job of clearing up my blemshes, but i'm thinking i should switch brands so as to stop this annoying yeast problem.

what are you taking? i know to stay away from triphasics, but i'm wondering what other pills are good for PCOSers....

Thanks for any input!!

(p.s. i am already on spiro, so i don't think Yasmin is a good choice).
