    Hi , Metformin is to control the insulin. Generally docs give this as first medicine to PCOS.You need to maintain diet and excersise along with this.So no to rice and maida products and do some yoga - mainly kapalabharathi-15mins and agnisara-15mins. These two yoga excersise along with diet control helped me to get my periods back on track with out medicines. I was having PCOD since 2008.

    Hi,
    This was the diet whcih my yoga teacher gave me, she used to give personalised diet.
    1. Morning milk with 2 drops of ghee and pinch of haldi.
    2. No to mida , bread and eggs( as eggs here harmones induced ones).
    3. limited intake of rice.
    4. Amla juice once a day or pure amla
    5. beetroot or corriander juice once a day.
    6. before you start kapalbharathi, she adviced to keep hot water towel on the stomach.

    When i got my periods back i was not taking any medicies . I was just on diet and exercise.
    After getting periods for 3 motnhs regularly I was adviced to take clomid and i conceived in that cycle. I am in my 8th month now.
