hi,

i am a 37 year old women w/2 children who was just diagnosed this week w/pcos. my doc. put me on 500 mg 2x a day. by the end of 3 weeks i should be up to 2 500 mg 2 x a day. my questions are: is the dosage right (i weight 184), do most people have to take it forever (i am also on synthroid & aldactone), will i really loose weight (i read that a lot on the board) and finally i have a 13 year old daughter who is very athletic, her body is all muscle, but she carries extra weight around her middle & i also noticed a line of dark hair on her face. should i get her tested? i dont ever want her to experience what i do. i think the low self esteem (because of the facial & body hair and weight) is the worst.

i am very sorry about all the questions, if you can help answer any of them i would be very grateful.

thank you,
