I have been recently diagnosed with PCOS and I had to keep asking for someone to dig further into my health I finally had a doctor to listen. I have excessive facial hairs (like a man) I'm constantly shaving and plucking my face, very low sex drive (that's kind of messing up my relationship), I have 4 children and had 2 miscarriages, I bloat alot at times and it's hard to lose weight (especially belly fat & my double chin) in which my neck looks swollen like i have thyroid issues and I don't, oily face & acne, alot of mood swings, depression (sometimes unbearable), thin hair & hair loss on my head, achy body sore muscles sometimes and energy levels so low some time I dont get alot done i just mope around!! She has prescribed me Metformin and I see it's for type 2 diabetes which i don't have i read about it and am scared to take it anyone else taking Metformin?? Would there be anything more on the natural side to help my over health due to PCOS??

Years ago for me I was put on metformin. It’s meant to help control insulin in pcos as we have more fat storage so insulin can be higher. It didn’t make much difference for me so I was taken off it.
Testosterone is the problem with hair growth & loss.
I don’t know natural meds as I’m now peri menopausal so way past what’s going on with you. Best thing would be go back to Dr or a herbal shop that can help you out there. Best of luck
