I read an article about statins (cholesterol reducing meds) reducing PCOS symptoms specifically regulating AF. My dr. started me on the statin Lipitor and I am wondering if any ladies have experienced it. Most doctors don't recommend it for women TTC, but since my cholesterol is near stroke levels I can not leave it untreated.
