What should I know about the side effects of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) treatments?
Treatments for PCOS, including hormonal birth control and insulin-sensitizing agents, can have side effects. Hormonal birth control might cause weight gain, nausea, and mood swings, while insulin-sensitizing medications like metformin can lead to gastrointestinal issues such as diarrhea and nausea. Regular monitoring and lifestyle modifications can help manage these side effects.
