      Maybe it has changed a little I don't drink as much alcohol as I used too and I've been on and off following the slimming world diet. I take metformin to help with pcos and weight loss I'd like to lose 2 stone. I've been concerned that the bleeding is something serious but I've had blood tests swabs gyne check and it's all normal, also I don't know if it's just coincidence that the bleeding seems to be set off after sex but not straight after, a few days later.. So confusing
