: Heather,
I've been suffering with PCOS since I was a teenager and until my RE put me on Metformin, I was not having normal periods or ovulating. I was tested for insulin resistence and then put on Metformin in March of 1999. Within 2 weeks I began to have feelings in my body like my period was coming on. From that time forward I had normal ovulations and periods.

I became pregnant in my second month of Metformin usage.

My weight with the help of a low-carbo diet begin to come off very quickly!

Heather, this is my experience, everyone's body is different but I've spoken to many women who have had the same wonderful experiences that I have had.

My best advice is to talk to your RE and if he suggest Metformin (Glucophage), go for it!!!

Good Luck!!!

Rene Davenport
