Hello,
The Anavar contains Oxandrolone, which works as an anabolic steroid. It is associated with issues of weight gain and body building purpose, and hence it never can be used for losing weight. Actually PCOS is a metabolic derangement with Insulin resistance and hence medications like Metformin and others help to reduce the weight as well as other symptoms of PCOS.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
