The medicine you are taking contains metformin which helps in reducing insulin resistance, but does not really help in reducing excess facial hair growth. You need to consult your dermatologist again regarding this. Laser hair removal is the only solution for permanently reducing hair growth in case of PCOS.

Hello, thanks for the query.
Tablet gluconorm 500sr is containing only 500 mg of metformin in sustained release form. Where as the gluconorm pg2 contains glimiperide 2 mg and pioglitazone 15 mg. The second tablet must have been prescribed because the blood glucose levels are not in control. Thanks.
