Advice for a 19 year old with PCOS in the UK
My partners daughter has PCOS and I really don't think she is getting the help she needs. Metformin is making her very sick and has severe diarrhoea. Her weightloss just isn't happening. Any advice would really be appreciated

Prostate Cancer Patients Shouldn't be so Quick to Dismiss Metformin (despite some contrary opinions on Advanced Prostate Cancer forum)
([i]Note this study didn't include patients with prostate cancer. I post it to provide an alternative to postings here that discourage use of Metformin by prostate cancer patients. Metformin strengthens your immune system, reduces inflammation, moderates glucose levels, and provides resistance against

Nephrologist Visit
I saw the nephrologist today and am so glad that I did. First, she is a total sweetheart and spent a lot of time asking questions and really listening to the answers. Then she spent time telling me what she thinks happened and what she thinks will happen in the future. Everything was positive and

PCOS and insulin resistance
Hi I'm new, first post. I've had issues with a raised Hba1c for many years. After asking over and over, as I'm healthy weight and eat well, could it be linked to any other health condition, and being told no, finally after much research I've been diagnosed with PCOS. I've seen a specialist as

Metformin interfering with HDT therapy
Sloboy writing on this as I take Metformin. I read an article that Metformin interferes with the work of the high dose B1 therapy. Is anyone taking Metformin by chance and having successful high dose B1? Appreciate any information. Im sure I need to take a higher dose of B1 than what I have done

I am not sure if I have pernicious or if I am just B12 deficient due to gas and air but I inject B12 and find it very helpful.
However I have polycycstic overys and although \I have avoided it in the past think I might need to start taking metformin due to my weight issues which are serious. Will this matter if I am injecting anyway?

Statin vs PSA
I started taking Statin a few days ago, because Cholestrol (LDL+HDL) soared to 285 after I took bicalutamide. All of sudden, it appears that my PSA went down from 0.20 to .019 within 5 days of taking Atorvastatin. Is that a possible scenario? Statin was prescribed by my primary care doctor and

62, diabetic and no libido at all
Hi everyone- my boyfriend of three years is a type 2 diabetic. He isn’t overweight and takes metformin everyday to manage it. His diet isn’t the best, but we don’t live together so he eats what he likes.My issue is for the last 18 months he has hardly touched me. His lack of interest in sex is upsetting
