Endocrinologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Good day.
There are lot of information needed before a drug can be prescribed. We need to know her height, weight, details of periods,
Does she have excess hair growth, pimple etc
Doctors need to examine her and then prescribe medicines. Metformin helps in ovulation and for weight loss.
It is against the policy to prescribe a medicine with out seeing a patient. Hence may I request you to consult a local endocrinologist for prescription and further advice
Thank you
Regards
Binu
