Hi Kim,

Have you had a blood test called "Hemoglobin A1c" which will show if your blood sugar is under control or not?

To simply prescribe clomid tells me that your doc is
probably a Fertility specialist and not a GP.
(Do you like spending a lot of money?)

If you are infertile, it will regress as you loose weight, control your blood sugar and as your insulin requirements decrease.
Yes! the excess body hair will also disappear in six months or so, as will your acne and excess hair loss.
If your voice has deepened it may sound cute but it is a sign of masculinizing hormones that you want to
be rid of. (Then you will sound more like Pamela)
Irregular, painful periods and cysts on your ovaries
will also be a thing of the past when male hormones do not affect your female cycles so severly.

This string has been fairly quiet lately, so i hope you get a few more comments.
If not, I hope what I have relayed is of some help.

Ron

I was the original person with the post and after being diagnosed with PCOS my doc put me on glucophage. and also told me to excercize and loose weight and tha will be the best help. I was also curious as to why clomid was not prescribed to me but I guess I have to wait. The doc told me to take this med from 3-6 months depending on the results. I want a baby but I want to be helth. I hope this helped feel free to ask any questions.
