Hi there Kiwi cysters, didn't realise there were so many of us.
I found a great doc last year Dr. Dianne Davis of Paramount Medical Centre, Tikipunga, Northland.
She is ready and willling to listen...she is still learning about pcos herself but is willling to give anything a go, if you are.
I am her for pcos patient to go on metformin which i started a year ago.
I want to hear from anyone else who has had to be on the contraceptive pill whilst not trying to get pregnant, they recommend i stay on it to help with ovulation but won't metformin do this anyway?
My meds are:
Estelle 35-'the pill'
Metformin 1500mg per day
fluox fo depression associated with pcos
endless treatment to relieve psorarisis of the scalp(anyonw else out there suffer from this who has pcos?)
Pain killers for gallstone-which they say may be realted to pcos and 'the pill'
