-- Hi, I was diagnosed with PCOS 4 years ago. Recently married we wanted to try to get pregnant right away because of my condition. After being diagnosed I was on spironolactone, metformin and birth control pills. Went off the spironolactone and birth control pills and got pregnant 2 weeks later. Miscarried at 12 weeks in July, and have not gone back on the pill, continuing with the metformin and still have not had a period. Wish I had stock in all the pregnancy tests I have been buying since then. What is Alesse and ortho-cept?
