Pregnancy & PCO (Poly cystic ovaries)

By habibunnisa

I am having PCO for the last 2 years. I have also suffered a mis-carriage during the last year. My doctor has prescribed Glycomet (Metformin) 850 mg (twice daily) for PCO. I am regularly taking the medicine and now I am pregnant again.

Can anybody advise me:
1. A good Gynaecologist in Doha who has experience in treating pregnancies with PCO.
2. Can any sister share her similar experience and advise whether Glycomet (Metformin) should be continued during pregnancy.

Thanking all in advance.
