A member asked:
If i have an anovulatory cycle due to pcos every 37-51 days, would there be any additional benefit to taking progestin-only pill to thin womb lining?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes there would be: "Taking progestin-only pills to thin womb lining" is a very reasonable idea and will provide you "additional beneifts" such as reducing your risks of endometrial tumors.
