Does anyone here have experience with Avandia? My doctor is putting me on this (in addition to met and spiro) because even though I've been "doing everything right", I still don't have periods, which, during the past 6/7 years (I'm 33) I have only had when I'm on the pill (which I can no longer take because it raises my blood pressure too much).
I'm mostly concerned about the weight gain, I feel like I've recently gotten myself to a place where my clothes fit and I feel energetic (and actually enjoy exercising) but I know that when I'm heavier, those things are definitely more challenging. Has anyone here taken Avanida and had luck keeping the weight off? Has it helped those of you with "stubborn" PCOS to have periods? Any side effects I should know about? Any success stories?
Thanks in advance.
