Getting off BCP was how I found out that I had PCOS in the first place. I had gotten on BCP when I was 16 for irregular periods (told it was just puberity) and didn't get off until I was 26. I went back on BCP and recently have felt much worse than ever! I have now been off BCP for about 6 weeks and of course no cycle.
If you are not TTC then stay on BCP the side effects of BCP are much less than being on nothing when you have PCOS. If you are not ovulating at all (like me) than getting pregnant is going to be a challenge.
Good Luck! |
