UPDATE:
I had my appointment today, and the doctor did not seem concerned at all about the spotting. She told me that as I approach 30 (gulp
), my body is changing. She said that my BC pills might not be strong enough, and therefore, can't "keep it all in". Not a lovely picture, but at least I'm getting ready to be done with those pills anyway.
As far as the PCOS and the metformin, she went ahead and wrote me a prescription. She wants to get it running through my system so that I'm able to ovulate as soon as I stop the BC pills.
All of this was very encouraging, and I thank you for your prayers. Melissa and Teresa, thank you for sharing your own experiences and your heart. I know that PCOS is common, but when everyone around you is a "fertile myrtle", you start to feel very lonely. Melissa, I will continue to pray for you and your husband. We serve a very powerful God.
I'll be sure to keep you posted on my "progress..."
