Pcos ,off birth control for about 2 months have had normal periods june and july now it's august and no period yet. just brown spotting?

You periods may: only be normal due to the BCP's, which you are no longer receiving. Have you discussed other therapies with your physician, such as metformin which can treat the basic problem of insulin resistance, often correct and normalize menses, and can in many cases even restore fertility.
