PCOS Medication and Supplement Change Log
A simple PCOS treatment tracker for prescribed medicines, supplements, dates, dose changes, side effects, symptoms, and questions.
Use this log to track PCOS care changes in one place. It can include prescribed medicines, supplements, and symptom notes.
This is a record, not advice. It does not say what to take. Ask your clinician before you start, stop, or change a medicine or supplement.
For daily symptoms, use the PCOS symptom tracker. For cycle context, read the PCOS period tracking guide.
Current list
Write the full list before you track changes.
Name Type Dose How often Start date Prescriber or source Why you take it Notes Prescribed medicine / supplement Prescribed medicine / supplement Prescribed medicine / supplement Prescribed medicine / supplement
Use the label or bottle name. Add the unit, such as mg, mcg, or IU, if shown.
Change log
Use one row for each change.
Date What changed Name Old dose New dose Who told you to change it? Reason Notes Started / stopped / dose changed / missed Started / stopped / dose changed / missed Started / stopped / dose changed / missed Started / stopped / dose changed / missed
If you changed something on your own, write that down too. Your clinician needs to know the real timeline.
Side effect and symptom notes
Use this table when something changes.
Date Symptom or side effect Severity 1 to 5 Time after dose Cycle day Other context Question : :
Write what happened in plain words. For example, "nausea after breakfast" is clearer than "felt off."
Call your clinician or urgent care for severe or sudden symptoms, or if you are not sure it can wait.
Cycle notes
PCOS care often needs cycle context.
Period start date. Period end date. Cycle day when the change began. Bleeding changes. Acne or hair changes. Mood or sleep changes. Ovulation signs, if you track them. Missed doses. New stress, illness, travel, or sleep loss.
You do not need perfect notes. A simple date and plain symptom note can still help.
Questions for your clinician
Bring this list to your next visit.
Which medicines and supplements should stay on my list? Are any items on my list likely to interact? Which side effects should I report right away? What should I track before our next visit? How long should I track before we review a change? Should any labs be checked because of this plan? What should I do if I miss a dose? Who should I call with questions between visits?
The Endocrine Society patient resource lists medication categories used in PCOS care. Examples include hormonal contraception, metformin, and fertility medicines. This page names categories only so you can label your log. It does not advise any treatment choice.
Make a visit summary
Before the visit, make a short summary.
