PCOS

Hello :)

I am looking for any advice...
I have been trying to conceive with PCOS for 9months, I have been taking good quality prenatal multivitamins, ovasitol, NAC & Magnesium as my research has suggested. My cycles were between 45-65 days. I was then started on Metformin 4 months ago and since then I have unfortunately not had a period, my cycle is currently 135 days (pregnancy test is negative). I have searched online for possible explanations and cannot find any.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this effect from taking Metformin?
I don't know how long the GP will suggest I remain on Metformin or whether they will suggest another form of treatment.

Any suggestions welcome 🙂

I found that Metformin helped sometimes, but that my body on some months would just give in and not work… have you checked with your Dr to see what they say?

I find some Drs brush PCOS under the rug so don’t let them try to rob you off. If you need something else from Metformin advocate 😊
