I'm looking for the link, but Metformin has been tested with Dianette and it
worked better than just Dianette alone. Its the only BCP I've seen tested with
Metformin. The study came out in the beginning of this August, and that's the
only study type thing I've seen.

Recently I saw a specialist and she prescribed Metformin. I thought this was
going to be the miracle cure I had waited for for so long. However, I haven't
seen the results I was hoping for and I wondered how long I could expect to wait
for positive results to happen. I have been taking it nearly 3 months and I
wonder whether coming off the pill would be advisable? I have been using
Dianette for 4 years and many other brands before that. In total I have been on
the pill for 9 years, and although it has had a positive effect on my free
hormone levels etc there have been no physical improvement in my symtoms. If
anything, the physical symptoms have got worse.
What can I do to make Metformin more effective for me? Should I come off the
pill? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
