Sonnet:
What dosage of Met were you on to relieve your symptoms? Did it relieve
all of the symptoms? I have been on 1000MG twice daily. Although I have
seen improvements; my periods have come back, I lost 40 lbs with little
effort and my hair has improved, I still have acne and facial hair
growth and my testosterone is still high (70 ng/dL). I am considering
asking my RE if raising the dosage might help.
Thanks,
Jodi
