Dear Sorna, Hi & Welcome.
You seem to be taking treatment for Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Glyciphage (Metformin) is an insulin sensitizer which makes your body more sensitive to insulin is frequently used for PCOS. It helps more in case you are overweight. You will benefit from it.
It can be taken throughout pregnancy associated with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) as it has shown to prevent the miscarriage, prevent the fetal growth retardation and prevent the preterm labor. It also reduces the pregnancy-related complications, such as gestational diabetes & gestational hypertension.
Gonadil is a nutraceutical (nutritional) supplement which is a non-hormonal treatment of PCOS it can also be taken during pregnancy. The duration of treatment is a minimum of 3 months and if required can be continued even thereafter.
Besides these medications, please maintain your body weight in ideal range, not overweight or underweight. Do regular exercise or yoga or meditation to recover quickly.
Hope this will help.
