I have polycystic ovaries (which my doctor says should be called insulin resistance disorder) and am about to start metformin.
Anyone have any experience of using this? I've been warned it can be hard on the stomach.
I'm taking it in the hope that a) I can lose weight and b) it stops unwanted hair growth (on my face and neck - very unattractive and socially inhibiting).
