Default Did vaniqua work for you ? (and how well)

I know everyone has not tried it but if you have I am REALLY curious to know if it worked..I'm just trying to get a sense of how much I can/should expect...there haven't really been studies with it have there ?

Thanks girls.

I'm just thinking of another question I should have asked...if it is not working for you had you got your testosterone levels down and under control when you used it ?

Hi there,
Vaniqua has worked wonders for me. I still have to shave in the morning, but its a lot less than what it used to be. I wouldn't be embarrassed now, if someone touched my chin, where before I wouldn't let anyone see me before my shower.
I am taking metformin and using vaniqua. As my endo told me, why take a pill if you can get somewhat good results with a creme. She is willing to put my on sprio if needed, but at this point, I am pleased with the results.

Jenny
