A member asked:
When a pcos woman should start taking metaformin, when is it suitable as a treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PCOS: If you want to conceive I would suggest starting Clomid (clomiphene) alone which may help you conceive. If not and you wish to have regular periods then metaformin is the drug of choice.
