Response to Birth Control Pill recs for PCOS?

Talk to a reproductive endocrinologist to see if it is necessary. One who specializes in PCOS. I have PCOS and DESPISE the BCP and refuse to take it - makes my voice crack, plus above symptoms. And we have a history of blood clots.The only time I was required to go on BCP was to induce when I didn't have a period for 5 months. I went on Ortho-Tricylin for 5 months. It sucked and I stopped when things calmed down. The next step for me would be glucophage. Hoping to avoid that.

If it is required, finding the right one may require trial and error. Every PCOSer presents different symptoms and reacts in their own way.

Isn't nuvaring just another delivery method of said hormones?

Here is a helpful PCOS discussion board:

good luck!
