Thanks again!!

Amanda,

My doctor did essentiallly the same thing when he suspected I had PCOS. He actually gave me the option of waiting until I saw the endo or starting a low dose of Met (500 ) and Spiro(25)
I figured that it was better to start it and get my body ready. If you really have PCOS,I don't think it will mess up your blodwork for when you go to the endo. It didn't for me, anway. I still had off he chart testosterone and the endo quadrupled my meds. I also ended up having a CT scan and an internal ultrasound to confirm DX.

I've lost 22 pounds since May ! My face feels softer, and my lovely mustach has faded away. !!!!!!!!
