I am on my second pack of yasmin. But i have lost 16 pounds and am eating right and am doing my metformin religiously for the first time. I almost want to finish this pack of yasmin to see if i get my period on my own finally. But say i don't after several months (which i am deadly afraid of b/c well duh the PCOS, but the tons of excercise i'm doing) should/could i go back on the yasmin or is that going to do more harm than good to my hormones? i guess i could wait until i'm at my goal weight to get off the yasmin, but that'll be a while, and i head losing 10% could do it, and i'm really close to that already. I just want to do the right thing b/c when hubby gets back from deployment we're going to TTC hardcore again after a MUCH NEED ttc break. I don't want to do the wrong thing b/c our chances arent' that good so that's all i need is to mess up my hormones even more with wishy wash BC. ANY help would be soooo appreciated

I would not go on and off like that. (Yes you can do more harm than good)
You won't get the bennifits your on the meds for in the first place.
Stick with it until your ready to TTC.
I also sugest checking out the Trying To Conceive(TTC) board for more help.
Good luck!!

I would take them longer than 2 months and you probably will get your period on your own maybe for a month or two. I do anyway. I was taking the bcp's during the months I wasnt ttc to keep my testosterone down and to have a period. I would take them 3 months or more before I got off and ttc.
I think you're doing wonderfully and are on the right track. I would continue to do what you're doing for a few more months. It seems to be working really well for you! The last time I dropped to 150 (I'm at 180 right now), I started getting AF all by myself. I was SO happy I always recommend weight loss, it seems to help out a lot to regulate hormones and such with cysters. I'm trying to lose weight right now and get back into the 150s right now for that reason. Good luck!! Congratulations on your weight loss!!!
