Yes: Endocrinologists treat pcos because it is typically related to Insulin resistance and prediabetes. They can also help guide you with appropriate medications, weight loss, treatment of excess hair growth. When you are ready for pregnancy you would then see a reproductive endocrinologist, if needed.
