Met + Yaz here, too. I love it. It's great knowing when AF is going to show up (I never knew, before!). I love that I don't get pimples anymore (never had the acne), I love that my weight is dropping (for the first time that I can remember, no matter what I did, it always went UP!), and I love that the darker facial hair has either gone or isn't as quick-growing.
I know some people believe that BCPs are masking PCOS---and that may be true. However, as a 26 y/o single woman, I'm going to damn well be on BCPs at this point in my life, unless I'm looking at life-threatening side effects. Roomie had a non-BCP-related stroke this year, and seeing her nightmare of trying to "be safe"---hell no. I don't care if it's masking the disease, BC is here to stay for me.

Of course the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you--if you don't play, you can't win.
