I can totally understand your frustration. The symptoms that you have are similar with mine --I also have PCOS. The disorder is not just reproductive in nature but it has to do with our hormones too. This explains why we have plenty of other symtpoms like facial hair, libido issues, etc..As for me, Metformin has helped me a lot. But since you are not responding well to it, it may be good to see an OB-Endo. They are the ones really good at managing this condition. And at least you may also have blood tests done to identify any hormones that you may need to have medication for. I know that it's frustrating, but with PCOS it's important to get treated and to work on living a healthier lifestyle. Hang in there! Hello! I can totally understand your frustration.
