Hiya. I have PCOS and I have taken the pill before but stopped and now I have put on more weight. My doctor said the pill is the best thing to treat my pcos but is it safe? I'm 5'7 and about 19 stone. I'm also on no other medication to help with my pcos and I don't get a period at all, the last time I had a period was 2020
