PCOSupport.org Start there.

About the BCP, remember, it only MASKS the symptoms and gives you temp relief. It only helps the side effects of PCOS and does not help the PCOS. When you come off the pill, your symptoms will most likely be worse. The pill didnt make it worse, but PCOS gets worse with age; especially untreated.

In my opinion, BCP and PCOS are not good in conjunction. There are other forms of BC. Condoms and Spermacide or Sponge/Diaphram and spermacide have the same %age as BCP but with out the chemicals and drugs messin with your body even more. Again this is my OPINION.
