Guest guest Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 I found out a few months ago that I have PCOS, Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome. Which basically affects the hormones of all sorts including insulin. The doctor has placed me on a drug called Metformin. Which is usually a treatment for Diabetes, to allow the body you sensitize itself to its own sugar levels. The side effects of this drug are most unpleasant. I was told I would probably see 2 weeks of diarrhea, due to the medication. It's been more like 3 months. Has anyone seen an alternate herbal treatment for PCOS-or similar diseases, are have a good remedy for the diarrhea, the immodium doesn't seem to be working very well? Or a treatmen I could supplement the Metformin with so my Doctor can reduce the dosage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
