Anyone take 500mg of met and have success? ie) Get pregnant, improvement in acne and oily skin.

I am not insulin resistant and just beginning metformin. I am on 500mg of metformin a day and will be working up to 1000mg a day. Since my insulin is actually low I am curious if a lower dose like 500mg is enough to help.

Anyone have any thoughts or advice to share?

i was on 500mg for 2 weeks then upped it to 1000mg been doing that for a week now. It takes time for it to work but so far the hair growth on my face has come to a dead stop in the places its not suppsed to be growing, and its not falling out by the handfull from my head. My acne has cleared up and my skin looks healthier than it has in a very long time. I've had an easier time losing weight and seem to have more energy. Don't give up on it, because like I said it does take time to work.
