About a year or so maybe I was diagnosed with PCOS and my old gynecologist had prescribed metformin but I desperately need an alternative. I consulted with my primary care doctor and told her the issues I’ve been having with it and she told me to stop it immediately. I go see a new gynecologist on Tuesday so what should I mention that would be a good alternative?

*UPDATE*

I went to the gynecologist and I forgot to ask about a referral to an endocrinologist since I don’t know of any where I live. He put me on 6 months worth of MonoNessa and I just recently got blood work done to test my insulin levels. I go back in April to see how everything is working out so far. In the mean time, does anyone have any ideas on good diets and exercises that would be good for weight loss since I know weight can be another issue with PCOS. I appreciate all of the help!
