PCOS, Glucophage, and weight loss?
I know with proper diet you can loose weight. Just wondering how much weight can you loose with the aid of glucophage?
Best answer:
It is nearly impossible for women with PCOS to lose weight without the help of Glucophage (aka metformin). It works best with a low carb diet and exercise. It is possible to lose as much as you really want. I've heard of women losing over 100lbs...but with a lot of work. Personally, I lost about 27lbs in less than 3 months (then I got pg) without really trying very hard. Make sure you also drink TONS of water. They say half your weight in ounces. So, if you weigh 200lbs...then you should drink 100oz. of water per day. Not realistic for everyone..but drink as much as you can (it will also help with the nasty GI side effects of Glucophage). Good luck.
