What to do if i have pcos (polycystic ovary syndrome), does it contribute to me being overweight?

It may: Yes it can contribute to weight issues. However their are some women with pcos that are thin so its not the only cause of metabolic issues. Accurate diagnosis of your condition is important to proper treatment.
