Hi mona I to am trying to have another child mine is 9yrs. of age, I found out thay I had pco back in 95 but, no one ever had any detail info on it they just kept putting me on progesterone to bring down a cycle. Recently I have just started taking metformin which is supposed to help lower blood sugar levels, if you type http://www.metformin.com it will bring up a site that will explain everything to you in detail that is what I did. I am also exp. the excrucitaing pain in the abdominal area on my lower left side but it did not start until I started taking the metformin. There are side effects that I am trying to cope with from the metformin like the nausea and diarrehea, they said it would go away in a few weeks but I can find nothing that talks in detail about this particualr pain that I am having, so when I find something else or more info I will be happy to share!!!

GOOD LCUK AND GOD BLESS!!!
