If you looked at links below there was one for two great sites that might give you the support you need.
www.pcos.net
www.pcos.com
I hope that is what they are. You should be able to find some good answers there.
Otherwise tell your doctor that you do not want to do something that can increase insulin resistance. I don't think you need meds, but diet can help greatly.

I take glucophage but there are side effects with it and possible long term effects. You can also take chromium picolinate.

Good Luck
