Hey I had ovarian drilling in February and have lost weight. My periods before surgery had to be induced by provera, now they are 28days long and regular! I have ovulated naturally which I didn't even ovulate on clomid before the ovarian drilling! I would definitely recommend it
There is only a 6 month window of pcos symptoms improving, often this is done for fertility reasons as can increase your chances of conceiving. Often cysts can start to return after the 6 month mark and symptoms increase so it is only a temporary solution - it is not very often offered purely to reduce the symptoms as it would need to be re-done
