Hi, I'm new to this board and am thinking of trying this D-chiro-inositol in lieu of the metformin my RE keeps pushing me to take. I'm really wary of the Met side-effects, especially the hair loss. My hair had been thinning and it is finally coming back in and I really don't want to take a step back with this. My RE swears Met doesn't cause hair loss but I can't help but feel that there isn't some truth in all of these posts that say it does. What I'm hoping is that this DCI regulates my non-existent periods and ovulation. I have had one period since going off the pill in Oct and it likely was Provera induced - it started before completing the 10 day course so I'm not sure...any one have a similar story and success with the DCI? Can anyone reassure me that met isn't going to make my hair fall out? I'm currently taking vitex, macafem, and a slew of other vitamins/supplements. Also doing acupuncture. |
