PCOS ?'s: With PCOS, although ovarian cysts are part of that diagnosis, it is not the cysts which cause the PCOS, but hormonal abnormalities. If you are not attempting pregnancy at this point, you should be on constant low dose oral bcp's, which will minimize the formation of cysts, and preserve your fertility. Ovarian "drilling" will generally not stop PCOS.
