Do Diane And Metformin Cause Pregnancy While Sexually Active?
Hi i am 19yrs old and i am diagnosed with PCOS last 2013 and ive been taking diane 35 ever since i was diagnosed. Now they are giving me metformin XR to prevent having diabetes. Will taking Diane 35 and Metformin XR cause me pregnancy if i have secual intercourse? Looking forward for your response. Thank you and more power!

Diane 35 and Metformin XR will not cause increase chance of pregnancy on having unprotected intercourse. since you are having PCOS the chance of becoming pregnant is lesser than a normal women. It is always better to have protected sex ( condoms) for lots of other reasons other than pregnancy it prevents transmission of sexually transmitted diseases.
continue taking your medication regularly, maintain a proper diet rich in green leafy vegetables and fruits. reduce junk foods, oily food and carbonated drinks as they will increase your weight. go for regular aerobic exercise and physical work outs. be physically active involve yourself in swimming and sports.
Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
