I have PCOS, but my numbers were all technically fine, I ovulate, and I showed no IR, at least on the crude tests tried.  My doctor did not have much trouble prescribing metformin for me, though.  It took a little bit of wheedling, but not much. Metformin really does seem to help me, although I have nothing dramatic to report, not like the classic PCOS sufferers do.  My main observable benefits seem to be halted hair spread, no more swelling of face and extremities, no more carb cravings, and less severe premenstrual molimina.

Ladies, I’ve read in several places that anovulatory women with polycystic ovaries can still use Met even if all of the tests are normal range.  My doc is pretty up to date too.   Ever heard this theory of thought?  I don;t have PCOS, just PCO. Theresa

Response:

I had all levels within normal range (except the FSH/LH ratio) and I got metformin. It worked. Victoria "Theresa Nelson" <missare…@home.com> wrote in message
