Thank you so much for your answers!

Just to clarify, i've neen on Yasmin for several years as they are a life saver for me keeping my PCOS in total control. But through all this time I haven't really figured out what happens in my body when I'm on the pill, what happens to PCOS, because the symptoms aren't there. It almost feels as though it's gone although I know that all the symptoms will come back once I'm off the pill. The only negative side-effect i get from the pill is enlarged breasts (about 1/2 cup size) and slightly lowered libido. But then again, I cannot compare my libido to any normal situation 'cos I'm either on the pill or then my body oozes testosterone which is not normal situtation for a women either, although it did make me want more sex. IIn other words, I don't know what is the Normal Sex Drive for a normal healthy woman :/

But thank you for answering my questions

My life is agony without these pills, I even call them my "happy pills" and although I too would love to find a way to keep PCOS in control with diet, or alternative treatments, it doesn't work and also weight loss isn't going to help because I am already normal weight.
