[QUOTE="Teesee, post: 2283181, member: 443039"] Hi Rob I too have PCOS and now have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. We had our son via fertility treatment then IVF. Fertility Nurse mentioned Metformin to me and GP Prescribed it. This assisted my weight loss & was helpful in relieving some of my PCOS symptoms but more importantly was instrumental in us conceiving our Son (now 16) at first IVF attempt (after 13 failed rounds of IUI). Years later, I had Private Consultation with a Professor of Endocrinology who prescribed a very Low Carb diet. (No more than 30g per day). This lead to my most rapid and successful weight loss ever. I hope this info is helpful and suggest you and your wife have conversations with your Fertility Clinic Team & your GP in regards to both the Metformin & Low Carb Diet. Good luck with it all and I truly hope you are as lucky as we were & go on to conceive and have your much wanted family. Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have in relation to the PCOS & Fertility Treatment - I have no issue discussing/sharing my experiences. xx [/QUOTE]
