PCOS and the Sleeve

Anyone here have PCOS that has had the Sleeve or RNY? I'm curious to know what your weight/height and symptoms were before you had the surgery and how they are now? I'll start with me 
I was 16 when i was diagnosed, my cycles never came regularly. I would have one maybe once a year IF i was lucky. When I turned 18 I decided to lose weight and my cycles came back every other month which my OB was excited for. However, once I gained some weight back my cycles disappeared.
I went on BC and obviously my cycles came every month, and when I went off and switched to nexplanon, I did not have my cycles, but when I took it out in October of 2013, my cycles have been coming back every other month. After surgery (and again this is what happens to me when i have surgery) my cycles are still every other month.
I'm no longer taking the metformin since I was on the highest dosage someone who is diabetic was on and it did nothing but cause me to run to the bathroom.
