Hi.

Please continue with the glucophage as it is used in females with PCOS who need to lose weight. Weight loss with PVOS is going to be difficult and glucophage will help you with that. For adequate diet details meet a nutritionist and continue with a cardio workout for may be an hour a day, divided into 30 minutes a time, twice daily.

Best wishes.
