first I started a drug called metformin
three times a day (once with every meal)
then I was given a form of birth control
to help regulate me. Other drugs can be
used but as far as I know, metformin is
what is used most often. My sister uses
it too.

I don't know about insurance covering it
since I live in canada. But as far as I
know it's not overly expensive. My advice
would be to go see ur doc to see what
he/she has to say and suggest. Good luck!

If this is what you have a really good
treatment is diabetic meds such as
metforman and actos. The problem is
caused by an insulin resistance problem.
Those meds will not mess with your sugar
but will regulate the insulin in your
body. Actually actos had a disclaimer
that said you will become fertle, consult
doctor as soon as period is missed.

I am being tested for PCOS - we are trying
to have a second child and it is not
working - the doc thinks it might be PCOS
- is it possible to develop it after
having a child?
