Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
"I&#039;m 28, I was diagnosed with PCOS at 27 after no periods for 4 months (usually regular), GP prescribed Metformin &amp; told me to lose weight. I&rsquo;ve been taking Metformin since late November 2016 (about 8 weeks now) &amp; my period arrived (with a vengeance) the first week of January 2017, so about 6 weeks after starting. Can&rsquo;t tell if it was the pills but I like to think it helped. Metformin makes me nauseous sometimes, I snack less. I occasionally have upset stomach &amp; diarrhoea. I make sure I&rsquo;m near a toilet before eating a proper meal. I drink lots of water, &amp; don&rsquo;t take any other pills. It&rsquo;s hard not to worry but follow the plan and take it easy on yourself. I&rsquo;m glad I was given Metformin &amp; will continue to take it. All the best xxx"
