I was also originally diagnosed with lean PCOS before going to an RE where they changed my diagnosis to HA. That being said, my left ovary apparently appears slightly cystic and more along the lines of PCOS so I think they don't want to completely rule it out. For me, the medication is not very expensive and I don't seem to have the stomach trouble side effects that people complain about, so there is no harm in taking it. There is also research that shows that the metformin can even help maintain a pregnancy in the early stages, so I figure it can't hurt.Seeming Normalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547939882406785581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493786960912640418.post-14016806713524162682011-04-11T07:47:36.613-07:002011-04-11T07:47:36.613-07:00What is the reasoning behind taking the metformin?...What is the reasoning behind taking the metformin? I was incorrectly prescribed that when I first started seeing an OB (before I was referred to the fertility clinic) He thought I had lean PCOS, so made me take it for 3 months straight. My RE was pretty mad when he saw that, and said it was a waste of time, and I shouldn't have been on it in the first place. Your situation might obviously be different, I'm just curious!<br /><br />You sound at peace with your decision, so I know you've made the right one. Timing wise (and $$) it makes sense. You have some exciting months coming, so I hope that helps to keep you distracted and on a healthy path xoA m a n d ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15522409790762503985noreply@blogger.com
