Hello dear
Understand your concern
You should consult the gynecologist for proper management of the PCOS.
first you have to regularize the hormonal imbalance that reduce the hirsutism problem.
Take oral contraceptive pill and progesterone pill to regularize the period.
For hirsutism
- Cosmetic treatment:
Do Regular shaving and depilatory creams,
temporary treatment by tweezing and waxing and
permanent treatment :thermolysis, electrolysis and laser treatment
- Drug therapy: Topical eflornithine

But should be taken after consulting the gynecologist.

Avoid excessive sweets, oily and spicy foods. Avoid stress and do regular exercise daily to reduce the weight.
Hope this may help you
