I am on Metformin 1000mg, which I don't THINK is working! Ya know I've been on it for 6 months now, and I don't think it's doing what it is supposed to. I think I need to up my dosage. I'm also taking multivitamins! They really help.

I'm on BCP's and Spironolactone. BCP's are working like they're supposed to and the Spiro does help with the excess hair situation. It hasn't been growing back as fast/thick/dark as it used to after I wax it off.

I'm on 2000 mg of Metformin and on yasmin. I think they're both working quite well. I've lost 9 lbs without really trying since January, and I have very regular periods now.

Right now I am on Metformin. I have been on it for over 3 years and it has worked really well. I had lost a bunch of weight and then at the beginning of last summer my doctor said I didn't need it anymore, so I stopped taking it and I gained 20 pounds. So, right now I am STILL trying to loose that weight.

I am also going from 1500 mg to 2000mg, so I'll see if that helps.

I'm on Diane-35's (Dianette's for you yanks) and they seem to be working perfectly.
I am also on Effexor (my 3rd anti-depressant, you have to keep trying) and it has changed my life.

OH and i FORGOT. LOL. it's definitely working. I feel so much better than I did before taking it. That's for sure. Just give it time. and make sure YOU TAKE IT everyday. I tend to forget more often than i should.
