**1. Because PCs can occur independently or secondary to other disease thus do check with your thyroid profile [for under active thyroid]2. Since you are diagnosed with POD [laboratory diagnosis], which causes impaired blood sugar level of the person, thus is the reason of prescribing glyciphage [metformin] to you, also glyciphage is given in obese women thus affect weight gain and fertility.3.  Adverse effect of metformin is indigestion [puking felling], along with MAL absorption of vitamin B12 [so check periodically with values], you should also check HbA1C which gives up three months average of sugar control.4.
