Hi. I was diagnosed with pcod. Last year doctor prescribed me thyronorm and normoz as my thyroid levels and sugar levels were high with irregular periods. As my thyroid levels and blood sugar got normal, but still irregular periods, three months ago a doctor prescribed metformin only. Periods were ok for a month or two. Haven't got periods for two months. What to do?
