Hello,
Thanks for your query. Please continue Metformin tab(glycomet) because studies have shown good pregnancies rate while on metformin, and it will help you not develop gesatational diabetes (GDM) also if you get pregnant. And stop taking aldactone for time being.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow ups.
Wish you good health.
Regards,
Dr Arif
