Hello,
PCOS is on the rise now-a-days just like other hormonal disorders like diabetes and hypothyroidism. It responds very well to treatment, especially early on. Meprate can be used for some time, but prolonged use may not be advisable owing to the vascular side effects of any progestogen or estrogen. A complete assessment along with Metformin to reduce insulin resistance which is a common feature in PCOD, weight management, proper diet and regular exercise help to solve the problem in the majority. Yoga also can be helpful. I cannot comment on the efficacy of homeopathy or ayurveda. Hope this helps.
