Based on what you were prescribed, it sounds like you were diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). This can cause abnormal periods, facial hair growth, abnormalities in blood sugar (pre-diabetes or diabetes), as well as weight gain and infertility. I would want to verify this diagnosis, as other uncommon conditions related to the adrenal glands and other endocrine glands can cause similar symptoms. With PCOS the Glucophage is used to prevent diabetes from progressing, but will not affect your other symptoms significantly. However, it is important to continue taking it. If you haven t already, I suggest you see a specialist in gynecology/endocrinology. This type of specialist is familiar with PCOS and similar conditions, and can give you the best advice on the medicines to take and the right dosages. Hope this helps.
