hey I am on this drug and basically it is fine as long as you are not planning on geting pregnant. As with all these drugs it isn't supposed approved, plus you can get really strange looks from the chemist when you had in your prescription!!! I have been on it 6 months and already I have seen a slight imporvement but again with PCOS you can't be anything but paitent.
