Medical Weight Loss
A diabetes treatment for insulin resistance is also useful in women with PCO. Taking the medication Glucophage (Metformin) will result in a lowering of insulin levels. This frequently results in a return of normal menstrual function including ovulation in about half of women with PCO. In the other half, they then respond more easily to the traditional therapy as outlined above. Patients taking Glucophage for PCO frequently report an increase in energy level and weight loss of about 2-4 pounds per month. Exercising and dieting will accelerate the weight loss, yet not everyone taking Glucophage loses weight. Patients taking Glucophage may also experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, abdominal cramping and diarrhea the first month on the drug. The symptoms usually disappear after 30 days.
