Question just joined

Hey all. I just joined this group but have been with PCOS for over a year & 1/2 and I am getting ready to pull out hair. Metformin is not working to regulate AF. Any ideas what I can try?

hi lady in obx i know how you feel . my doc tried me on metformin all it did was try to shut down my liver and landed me in hospital for a month then i tried the natural approch by taking some vitamins like flaxseed, b complex, selenium, vit e , vit c and pre natal vit and that did regulate my cycles then when i thought i had achieved pregnacy it turned out to be a molar preg and well that just broke my heart but now i am going to see a new gyn and i pray to god he knows what he's doing anyways if you want you can email me at tanya_mariemad@hotmail.com and we can keep in contact and get through this together with the help of others on this post too

Unhappy Togirl

I know that the DR is not happy with me at all right now because now they are demanding to get a complete physical from me when they should of done that back in Dec 2005 not May 2006. They thought that the IF clinic would do it. Man I am really getting the feeling like I am getting the run around. But I guess it is good to find out now instead of further in the treatment. Sorry to be so down right now, it just seems like all I am hitting is brick walls.

I am always on Messenger from 7:00 am est to about 6 - 7 pm est if any want to talk. danette795@hotmail.com is my e-mail.

welcome!!
I have recently started to gor for IF treatment but I have been hitting nothing but road blocks i have had more tv ultrasounds that then normal human should have and more physicals. I have had three physicals since Feb.
and now to top it off I now have thyroid issues, I was on metaformin early on but it did nothing but make me ill and AF as well did not show up. The endo i was seeing kept switching my meds even after I told her what they were doing so i switched docs. I have found out that when docs don't want tolisten you need to find a new one.

well i have had pcos since i was 12 but was officially diagnosed with it in 2000. metformin hasn't regulated af for me either. when i wasn't trying for a child i took bcp and they regulated me but now i am trying prometrium to jumpstart af then trying clomid. good luck and just keep your head up.
