I will be 22 in march and just been diagnosed with PCOS back in the summer,,, i've always had problems and been put on the birth control.,, i was on the ortho,,, the ones you see on the commericals,, anyways i had severe headaches and migraines for days on end,,, i couldnt get any relief,, they almost made me have a catscan until they realized i was on birth control... they took me off the bc pill and bout a month later the headaches decreased,,, i still have them from time to time but hardly no migraines and not as severe as they once were,, ive spoke to the doc after that and they said if i wanted on birth control again they would give me a pill without the estrogen and see if my body could handle that,,, i hope your daughter has found some relief,,, my doctor now is wanting to put me on metaformin and bc for weightloss and some control over pcos,,, good luck! manda
