Yes, Glycomet-SR (metformin) can gently aid in weight management for mild PCOS by helping your body use insulin more effectively, especially when paired with a healthy lifestyle. Regarding your second question, a six-month course is a very common starting point to assess how your body responds. While PCOS is a long-term condition, it does not necessarily mean lifelong medication. Many women successfully manage mild PCOS over time through diet, exercise, and stress management, allowing them to eventually reduce or pause medication under their doctor's guidance.

Regarding your medications, Folygel (folic acid) and Fefol (iron/folic acid) are highly beneficial during pregnancy to support your baby?s development, though your doctor will balance their dosages. Glycomet (metformin) is often continued in early pregnancy for PCOS to help reduce miscarriage risks, but this must be carefully managed by your obstetrician. Please do not start any new medications to prevent miscarriage without a prescription. I highly recommend consulting your OB-GYN immediately to tailor a safe, personalized medication plan for you and your baby.

Switching to your current regimen of voglibose and metformin likely reduced the overall strength of your treatment compared to your previous combination, leading to these higher blood sugar readings. To optimize your control, your doctor may need to adjust your dosages or reinstate helper medications like a DPP-4 inhibitor or sulfonylurea. Regarding the trace yeast in your urine, this is very common when blood sugars are elevated, as excess sugar in the urine encourages mild yeast growth. It is usually harmless but highlights the need to gently bring your glucose levels back into balance. Please consult your doctor soon to safely adjust your plan.

You are currently taking progesterone, this hormone actively supports your uterine lining and will naturally prevent your period from starting. If you are not pregnant, your period will typically arrive a few days after you stop taking the progesterone. Additionally, it might simply be too early for a pregnancy test to detect a result. I gently encourage you to consult your fertility specialist to confirm the exact day to take a blood pregnancy test and discuss the next steps for your Glycomet and Biopreg regimen.

Your A1C of 6.9% and average daily sugar of 151 mg/dL are excellent, as they are right on target?which is typically under 7% for most adults. This shows that your current dose of Glycomet-GP1, which contains metformin and glimepiride, is working very well to keep your diabetes well-controlled. Since you are meeting your goals, your current regimen is highly effective. Please continue taking your medication as prescribed, and share these great results with your doctor at your next routine visit to ensure they align with your personalized long-term goals.

Actually, metformin typically helps with weight management rather than causing weight gain. Mild bloating and a temporary loss of appetite are common side effects as your body adjusts, but these usually fade. Increased 'body heat' is not a standard side effect. To help manage stomach sensitivity, try avoiding high-sugar, fried, or highly processed foods, and limit alcohol, as these can worsen bloating. Taking your medication with meals also helps.
