A member asked:
I have broadened facial features due to pcos. can i reverse it using anti androgens? would they give me an effect?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Insulin resistance: The broadened features of cheeks and forehead are usually secondary to high Insulin levels. Weight management to lower Insulin resistance can help. Metformin alone, from my experience, doesn't do it.
