PCOS: I'm not sure what the tea will do for your disease, it certainly won't hurt you. The metformin is the correct medication to treat your insulin resistance. Keep following your doctor's treatment plans.

Enjoy your tea: But don't expect any health benefit. Your metformin is likely to help. If you join a fitness club and get some high-powered athlete friends who'll make it fun to ramp your level of aerobic fitness up a few notches, you may be doing yourself an even bigger favor. This is a lifelong challenge, largely genetic, that often requires both meds and lifestyle awareness. Best wishes.
