The basic treatment of pcod is to reduce weight if you are on overweight or obese side and lifestyle modification. Any pill or metformin works only then! pcod is lifestyle disease which causes hormonal imbalance. See amazing results after losing weight.

Hello lybrate-user the most important step in the management of pcos is lifestyle changes. Healthy diet, exercise for atleast half an hour a day for at least 5 days a weak and weight loss of atleast 10% body weight if your weight is on the higher side. Metformin is a good drug if you have insulin resistance and also to improve the quality of ovulation. There is no need to add any other supplements. Remember that healthy diet and exercise will cure 80% of the problem.
