hi
my first doctor diagnosed me with pco based on a blood test(tsh, fsh and lh) and ultrasound result. he checked my blood sugar and it was normal.the thing is it should not be what he tested...my second and current doctor ordered a glucose tolerance test which tests for insulin levels vs sugar ingested.my insulin secretion was way above normal which suggest insulin resistance, another symptom of pco. he started me immediately on metformin.looking back, i should have started my metformin about two years earlier and maybe, maybe things would have been easier for us to ttc at this point in time
please look for a specialist in this field.not all doctors are familiar with the case. all of gyn will know a bit. but an expert in the field will know a lot.
God Bless!!! |
