marijen, that's okay. I'm sorry I misunderstood! I need to research berberine, just out of interest, but am already on Metformin and doing okay with it.

I'm just going to order the berberine. If dtad says it's good, it's enough for me. Losing weight is a biggy against cancer.

Here’s an interesting blurb from PCOS.com on metformin:

Treatment for hypothyroidism often entails hormone replacement therapy, which helps get thyroid hormones to their proper levels. In fact, according to one endocrine research study, "In obese PCOS patients with primary hypothyroidism, Metformin (a diabetes drug) results in a significant fall and sometimes normalization of TSH, without causing any reciprocal changes in other thyroid function parameters."6 Perhaps not ironically, Metformin is often prescribed to PCOS patients.

In both thyroid disorder though, a balanced diet and regular exercise are important to maintaining a high level of overall health, which will help your body fight these conditions and regain its proper hormonal levels.
