thanks!
You know, I'm not convinced that it would. Personally (and I'm not a doctor or anything, so this is just my opinion...) I think that Met helping conceive and Met helping to lower to miscarriage rate in PCOS has to do with the fact that a good majority of PCOS people have IR to some extent, so the Met helps with that and ultimately helps both conceive and remain pg. So I'm not so sure about what it actually does for a person who is not IR.

That said, it can't hurt to try the Met...
