"I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) two years ago and was prescribed Aldactone 50 mg and Metformin 500 mg two times a day. I was never regular in taking the medicine and skipped it for months in a row. Problems started 5-6 months back when my body hair, sideburns, upper lip, and chin hair started increasing. Last month I plucked out almost 80 really thick hairs out of my chin, and I had a stupid five o'clock shadow on my upper lip after shaving. I was desperate and started taking the meds properly. Trust me, people, it's not even a month, and the thickness of unwanted hair has become half and grows really slowly. All you have to do is have faith and never miss a tablet. It really can do wonders in your life."
