Default what would you do?

I am on my 6th month of met and I have gotten af 3 times but it has stopped....again. I am considering quitting the met. When you all were diagnosed with pcos, did you get blood work done? I just had an ultrasound done because I wasn't getting af and there were cysts. But, and maybe I am in denial but, I am not 100% convinced that I have pcos.
So, would you quit the met, request blood work? I am so confused andirritated beyond belief that this isn't working.

Don't quit the met just yet. What is your eating like? How often do you exercise? Maybe that just needs tweaking. I if you can get bloods - then do it, might show up something else that no one has thought of yet to make your 'recovery' better.

I would go see a RE, but don't quit your Met..... And if you got a diagnosis with no bloodwork - get another doctor. But Met seems to be first line treatment for PCOS.... it's worth maintaining.....
