I suffer from huge ups and downs with depression and my mother wants me to take something for it and I used to take Wellbutrin but I felt it didn't work, i was hoping that maybe anyone might be taking something like it and wanted to know if it is helping you.
I take 100mg sertraline tablets for my depression, but it was diagnosed before I was diagnosed with PCOS.
I'm also on 500mg metformin twice a day and simvastatins, 20mg.
Anyone else NEVER get a period?
I only do when I take Provera.
I have already tried Metformin, Vitex, weight loss, exercise, clean eating. Still have never had a cycle on my own.
I just started taking inositol, so I'll give that a shot for a few months to see if that helps at all. Any other ideas? Is there anything you have been able to do to naturally get a period?
Same. I have to take medroxy progesterone pills because I get tired of the on going break through bleeding. If I do have a natural one it's like once a year if that. I noticed after using birth… read more

After just under a year of trying and a MC we decided to use medication. I did letrozole to help with ovulation. The first round was a low dose (2.5 I believe). I still didn't show signs of ovulation… read more
Who has been on metformin while pregnant? My RE thinks my recent miscarriage is a result of stopping my metfromin, which my regular OB advised me to do when I went in for my 7 week ultrasound.
I wasn’t on it during my pregnancy but I had to have the progestin shot in my hip to prevent preterm labor. From what I’ve seen most RE and gyn want you to continue metformin while pregnant

I've never treated my PCOS, until now I had never knew there was different types, I've tried everything to lose weight, I gain weight rapidly. I have issues with facial hair and thinning head hair, some bald spots starting. My periods are torture, I was considering a partial hysterectomy but my GYN talked me out of it, I already have two children and plan on no more. Where do I even begin for treatment, I was diagnosed well over 15yrs ago. I'm 40 but never, ever treated.
Have you tried any medication like metformim?
I'm on Metformin medication, a medication made for diabetic patients. I was told it would help me. But it's passed 6 months and I haven't really see much difference. I just wanna know what sort of medication are use on??
Ive been researching clomid and well wanna know if anyone finds it helpful combining The two for a effective outcome??
Good afternoon all,
I’ve had PCOS for the last16 years and have been on 1,000 mg metformin for insulin resistance and Yaz now Nikki birth control to help with my cysts and hormones. Added in lexapro a couple years ago to help with fluctuating high highs and low lows. Is anyone else on this combination or taking any of the 3. I’m now 36 and wanting to know what’s working for others.
I have been having highs and lows because I haven't stepped. High dheas can cause insomnia or sleep issues and anxiety.
Me and DH have been trying hard for 8 months now, I've had 2 periods this year, none since may. Our Dr tried to reboot my period hormones with progesterone but that was almost 2 months ago, no period. She had suggested clomid to me at that visit, but I hesitated. Now I'm reading many times over about women with my same issues conceiving on clomid. I'm wondering if it's a good idea just to try it and see what happens. I'll take any advice, I'm so sad thinking I can't bare a child.
I've been back on it going on 3 months now and am still waiting for a period to come.
