What does the medicine glucofauge do for women with pcos??????????
Answer:
Glucofauge or typically Metformin helps us use the insulin we make. Most of us with PCOS suffer from insulin resistance, in return since the insulin seems to be ineffective then our body makes more insulin than we actually need. This cause obesity and infertility. I hope this makes sense, I don't any other way to explain it to you.
What give or take a few and iud?
I found a link for you to read. I do not know anything about this use for glucophage, but I usually work with elderly patients who are on this drug for diabetes.

basically it works by decreasing the weight of women with PCOS.. by inhibiting glucose digestion and improving insulin receptors.. especially that insulin resistance is always accompanied with PCOS and contribute in weight gain..
PCOS makes u gain weight, weight gain makes PCOS worse..
