Run . .while you can . . to a different doctor who will actually HELP you. You will still have problems after your surgery. I have never heard of doing an uterine ablation to treat PCOS. If he doesn't understand what Metformin does for PCOS, he's not the doctor for you. Find someone who understands it and can help.
