I've been diagnosed with PCOS for 9 years now. A few months ago I tried the GI diet for a week to see if it would work, and kept within 1,200 calories a day. It definitely worked, I lost 5lbs in a week, when usually I struggle to lose 1-2lbs a week on a different eating plan. I did find it very hard though, I was very restricted with food and was craving things a lot. It does help, because it keeps your sugars down but it is very strict.
Janey - the pill helps with hormones so anything affected by that such as facial hair can be reduced. I was put on the pill to regulate my periods and it made my skin a lot better too (acne). They also can try you with metformin for weight loss (although these have side effects such as sickness). There's no specific PCOS pill unfortunately but there are a few things that can help!
