Red face headaches

i have not officially been diagnosed with pcos yet but i strongly feel that is whats wrong with me. about a week ago my doc found a cyst. just out of nowhere. one day i start having abdominal pain then i go see him and he finds it. i'm going next week for a follow up and will be asked to be tested for pcos. (i heard a blood test can tell). and then to be put on metformin also. my hair growth is getting worse. does the metformin help reduce the male pattern hair?

p.s.-has anyone known or heard of headaches being a symptom of pcos?. i get headaches daily.

I know nothing about pcos so can't comment on it. Meformin is a drug to control diabetes, I take it. It has nothing to do with hair growth.
