Yes, it's a good med for PCOS even if you don't have diabetes because it helps to lose weight and therefore decreases metabolic effects of the condition

I tried Metformin and unfortunately couldn’t tolerate the digestive side effects (it gave me explosive diarrhea 😂), but for most people it works really well! I ended up using Byetta (an injectable diabetes medication) and almost immediately my periods became regular for the first time in my life.

I've tried both forms and both made me pretty sick. It does work very well for some people. Inositol in a D-chiro and Myo mix like Ovasitol is a good alternative. Some studies are showing inositol treatment is more effective than Metformin.

I take it and like it! It helped me loose a lot of weight and even improved my anxiety!

I did try metformin but I had explosive diarrhea also. Does anyone else know of an alternative to that that would be easier on the gut?
