PCOS is a prediabetic condition. If not controlled well can progress to diabetes. Dronis cannot cause diabetes.

Hello. Hello diabetes is not a side effect of dronis. Pcos is associated with insulin resistance and about 35% of patients of pcos have impaired glucose tolerance and 7 to 10% of patients have type 2 diabetes. You require lifestyle modification which includes weight reduction, regular exercise, brisk walk for 30 min daily and avoidance of high calorie food. It will be prudent to consider starting metformin which will help both in pcos and diabetes.
