Summary
The goal of this study is to determine the relative desirability of metformin vs. oral
combined hormonal contraceptives (OCs) in treating Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in women
of later reproductive age. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Questionnaire (PCOSQ) score will be used
as a proxy for patient satisfaction. In light of their respective effects on the classic and
metabolic facets of PCOS, metformin will provide non-inferior patient satisfaction compared
to OCs in later reproductive age women with PCOS.
