Shannon, My name is Kim and I am 27. I have had the same problem as you. I went to see an endocrinologist and I told him I wanted to become pregnant. He put me on glucophage 1500mg a day I just started it at the end of February I have noticed a big change as far as the facial hair goes and for my periods, I always have had regular periods, but I guess you can still have PCOS even with reg periods. So I am just waiting to see what happens. I guess you can also lose weight with the glucophage more easily if you exercise regularly and eat right that is what I have been doing and so far I've lost some weight I can tell by the way my pants are getting baggy. If you have any more questions you can e-mail me at kimmyg73@hotmail.com I would be glad to answer them for you. Good luck.
