has anyone stopped taking the pill with pcos? how we're your symptoms? I'm afraid of the mood swings coming back and all the other awful symptoms. I don't want to feel crazy like I did before. the last time I quit the pill it was almost instantly. my skin was a mess my period we're painful and late all the time. I was angry or sad almost constantly. I really want to stop taking the pill and possibly start trying to start a family. but the last time I tried it was 2yrs of late periods and negative pregnancy test. any advice would be helpful. thank you.
