Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) should control weight gain in daily life, engage in appropriate physical exercise, and avoid foods high in fat, making necessary lifestyle adjustments. If symptoms do not improve, oral contraceptives such as drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets or dydrogesterone tablets may be taken to regulate the menstrual cycle. For women who wish to become pregnant, ovulation-stimulating hormones such as clomiphene can be taken orally under medical supervision to induce ovulation and increase the chances of conception.
