Thanks for the responses. I've been doing some online research (oh, boy)...it seems like Yasmin is the best pill for PCOS because it contains spiro and has an anti-androgenic effect. But as usual, there are side effects w/ every drug. Ortho Tricylen worked ok for me but it gave me severe acne and I had to see a dermatologist for anti-inflammatory meds. This current shot has kept me spotting/bleeding for 11 weeks now w/ bad cramping. Some side effects are unacceptable. I will keep trying until I find something I can live with. Thanks for the insight.
