I have been diagnosed PCOS. Doctor has advised to take metformin. Fasting insulin is 24 and fasting sugar 100. I am worried body will get used to metformin so I do not want to take it. I am ready to exercise and stop sweet intake. Will this be enough? I am overweight by 10 kg based on my bmi. Please help.
