Glucophage is not a treatment like Antibiotics that you can stop taking once you are "better"... at least not in most cases. It is a maintenance drug, so if you are doing really well you should keep taking it, that means it is working for you! :)

Provera isn't needed if you're having regular periods on your own... it doesn't help weight loss it is to stimulate periods for the most part, or hormone replacement therapy which it seems you don't need right now as your periods are fine.
