Metformin is usually given to people with insulin resistance...did ur doc do that test. Many of severe PCOS cases have insulin resistance and thus a lot of people associate metformin with PCOS, but essentially it is related to insulin resistance, which many a times causes infertility

No he didnt do a test infact he said that im not showing any sighns of anything but he wants me on the medicine for the side effects which is ovulating i guess.. the pharmasist said it wont mess up my systom and its ok for me to take but it just seems wierd to me.
