A member asked:
No pcos, but still dheas is high 519. metformin increased the level. should i only take birth control pill to reduce the level? or combine any med?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doctor: Unfortunately i suggest think you probably talk to the doctor that prescribed the metformin in the first place. If you have not seen the doctor recently consider seeing somebody so that they can check and review all lab work.
