Hi, I'm 10 weeks pregnant and I have PCOS. I'm terrified of losing our baby, so I'd like to start taking Metformin again asap. Is it okay to start taking the medicine without visiting GP? My blood tests were fine this week. Thank you!

I have a history of PCOS. I was continuously gaining weight so my endocrinologist suggested metformin but the medicine made me nauseous all the time so i discontinued it. But after leaving the meds i am again gaining weight. I didn't want to rely on medicines all the time but keeping weight in check is becoming an issue. I feel very lethargic and have mood swings. Have a history of hypothyroid but my doctor took me off thyroxine as TSH levels were really low (4years ago; immediately after which i gained weight and kept gaining, complicated by PCOS). Should i start with metformin or do i need to get other tests done. Can it be related anyway to thyroid (Latest TSH levels are normal). Is there an alternative treatment available.
