I've always had a little growth here & there, luckily it was never too severe, but it cleared up immensely while I was on metformin. I quit the met at 7 weeks prego. Today I noticed like 10 gnarly thick hairs on my chin, YUCK! I have been getting my upper lip waxed more frequently and also I started having my brows tweezed every 4 weeks instead of 5. So, yes, I've def noticed an increase in hair growth, esp in the last few weeks.

I'm not pregnant yet but have noticed it's gotten worse since coming off BCP and going on Metformin/Clomid. Although I think Metformin is actually helping - just not as much as BCP was. I'd hate to see what I'm like with no treatment. I'm hoping my RE will let me stay on Met throughout the pregnancy (when I finally get there), although not sure if that's allowed...

BTW I've read 'normal' women can get hairy chins during pregnancy and it goes away after the birth. Hopefully that's the case with PCOS women too.

My facial hair has gotten A LOT worse since I got pregnant. It grows much faster than it did pre pregnancy.
