PCOS/Insulin Resistance Support - Dry Skin, Stretch Marks and BO...anyone else?

Gosh this is embarassing!

I started taking my Glucophage a few weeks ago. Since then I'm noticing that my hands are very dry, all the time. I'm getting dark spots on my knuckles, slightly thickened dry skin. I'm not sure if it's from the Gluc, but I just notice this.

Also, I stink! When I exercise I sweat, but I don't remember smelling so bad under my arms after a workout. Now any time I sweat, my pits smell worse than they ever used to. Hmm. It's really weird.

So far I've lost 13 pounds and I'm not seeing any difference in my skin except for stretch marks. More of them on my arms (at the bend) mostly and they are soooo ugly. At least they are good signs of losing weight, but they are so ugly. Good thing it's winter here and short sleeves are no more. I think from PCOS my stretch marks are a lot thicker and dark pinker than usual...it's so ugly. Anyone else have this? I'll just figure something out next summer.

Thanks for listening, ladies.

This was me preGluc. Especially the odar. Since Gluc, all of these things have only gotten better. Id give it a while before assuming its the gluc. If you have only been on it a few weeks, chances are its not doing all its supposed to yet.

GL! Congrats on the weight loss.
