Ultrasound PCOS
Hi guys, So just had my ultrasound done as I suspected PCOS. Reason why i kept getting LH surges on my OPK test every other day and a horrible left ovary pain. The ultrasound shows my left ovary has pcos however, my right doesn't. Does this mean i could still get pregnant? I've been trying for 1 year

My mom hasn't had her metformin in 2 weeks
Hi. I'm new here. My mother is a type 2 diabetic and she hasn't had her metformin in 2 weeks. What can happen to her body if she isn't taking the medication?

What is the efficacy index of T2 meds on BS level.
Can one quantify the effect of 500mg Metformin on Blood Sugar level ? for eg. If one consumes say 1 glass cola and after 2 hrs the BS level is 250 so if one takes 1 tab of 500mg Metformin then by how much will the BS level come down, is there any study on this aspect of Metformin and other such T2 meds

Metformin and Valproic Acid Has a Greater Anti-tumoral Effect on PCa Growth In Vivo than Either Drug Alone.
New mouse study below [1]. From Wikipedia [2]: "Valproate (VPA), and its valproic acid, sodium valproate, and valproate semisodium forms, are medications primarily used to treat epilepsy and bipolar disorder and to prevent migraine headaches." "Valproate was first made in 1881 and came into medical use

Feeling sad and discouraged
The blows just keep on coming for my dad. It’s getting more and more difficult to stay positive. I am feeling so sad and deflated. Last Thursday was his 5th chemo (Taxotere) and PSA is still rising. Up to 25 from 22 just 3wks ago. Nothing seems to be working for him and I’m getting extremely anxious

New to PCOS, treatment and advice
Hi, I am a 21 year old recently diagnosed with PCOS although I expected it for a while. I was put on the contraceptive pill(Yasmin) and also metformin as a constant treatment for my PCOS. I have always disliked all the hormonal pills being put into my body, and have heard of a few women treating there

PCOS PERIODS & RUNNING.
Today I started week 4, run 1. It was a new kind of challenge for me in so many ways as I've started my period. It's also a few days early, which is new to me as well. I have PCOS. For those of you who are unaware of this condition, its an ovary condition that causes painful cysts to stick to your ovaries

FROSTY RUNNING!
Hey runners! I didn't get a chance to write here yesterday as I had such a busy day that when I got a chance to lay down and look at my phone I fell asleep! Yesterday morning I went running out in the freezing cold frost in a pair of shorts. I didn't want to get my jogging bottoms wet or muddy and so

antihypertensive drug syrosingopine enhances metformin's anti-cancer efficacy.
Came across this on Metformin and syrosingopine. I have been taking 1000 iu of metformin a day in two doses. Could the wise ones on this forum share their thoughts on this report? I am Metastatic and CRPC and currently on Zytiga after 12 years of diagnosis. I dread the day when it may stop working as

No Periods
Hi there - I'm new to Verity. I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was about 16 years old over 12 years old now. My main symptom is I don't get periods very often. I usually get one maybe once every year but my most recent one was about 2 years ago. I don't take any medication as the doctors I have seen
