I have pcos and irregular periods and hirsutism and hairfall. can i intake flaxseed and birth control pill together?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can: But there will be no benefit. Which birth control pill? Some are better than others for PCOS. You probably also should take SPIRONOLACTONE, Possibly metformin, possibly dustasteride or finasteride. Usually weight loss is very beneficial for PCOS.
