Insulin management: Metformin or other drugs that increase your body's sensitivity to insulin are frequently used.Oral contraceptives can also be used to regulate periods but are contraindicated in your case due to the increased risk of clots and your antiphospholipid syndrome. At one time, "ovarian drilling" where surgically many of the cysts are burned with an electrocautery or ovarian wedge resection was common.

Metformin.: As you may already know PCOS is often associated with insulin resistance. Many women are treated with metformin which is a diabetes drug. there are good meds for gout. Antiphospholipid syndrome is associated with blood clots which may be very dangerous. I thinkits time to see your physician who has to be very smart.
