Dear Trisain,

I am so excited hearing your trials and the succesfull outcomes. This gives me really hope. I am now 33, diagnosed with PCOs when I was 17 and put into BCP when I was 22 (I am using it 11 years now!). Since I am planning to have a family within the next 2 years, I would like to start preparing my body to get rid of the pill and regulate my cycles and my ovulation without it. I am also thin and never tested for IR, so this is the common we have. My PCO symptoms were acne and irregular periods (all ok and normal with the BCP). I would appreciate if you could give me some consultation on what you suggest to do from now on. Metformin seems a promising solution. Do you take it alone and/or with other stuff (vitamins, herbs, etc.) and how do you manage any symptoms you may had?
Thank you in advance.
I would appreciate your answer very much.
Since it is hard for me to follow this thread (I am lost sometimes) you can also send me your reply to my e-mail cnanougr@yahoo.gr

thank u thank u!!! :-)
