Congrats to everyone here who is making the uphill climb against PCOS. I just wanted to throw in my two cents. I had laser for my entire body for over 2 years, and I had a modicum of success. My facial hair is thinner, but it's persistent. I went religiously every few weeks, but only my leg hair really went away (which is a blessing!). However, someone recently told me that prior to having laser it's important to get your hormones under control, and I don't think mine were when I started. Apparently, in addition to weight loss, there are birth control pills and other medication you can take to help manage your hormones. Unless your hormones are controlled, laser often won't work well.
Regarding the body odor, I found a great solution (albeit a pricey one!) that finally worked. It's called Body Mint, and it's pure Alfalpha or Chlorophyll (or something like that), so it isn't a medication. You take it twice a day and it deodorizes your entire body/breath. The stuff works!!! It takes a couple of weeks to notice a difference though, then you have to stay on it. The website is
Body Mint - Fight bad breath, body odor and foot odor. It runs like 20 or 30 bucks a month though, so it's not cheap. It will also turn your stools green. However, when all else fails, it's a godsend. Best of luck to all of you!
, plus some long (but thankfully blond) sideburns. And we'll see about my period. My last period was in September UNTIL about 9am on the day of surgery, when it decided to make another appearance. I really hate my body sometimes. 
You aren't alone! We are all suffering with the PCOS monster together.
