I'm on metformin 2000 for pcos helped my periods a little now my dhea's level high over 700 is related to metformin? do we have to treat if no symptom

DHEA: You must discuss this in detail with the doctor who is treating you. Metformin 2000 is quite a large dose and that might be a contributing factor without currently having any symptoms.
