415867 tn?1323365503 My doc gave me metformin to start taking and today is day 3 of 500mg and will work up to 3 pills a day. We were just going to do metformin but now after reading a lot I'm wondering if we shouldn't just do metformin and clomid together? Better changes? What is everyone elses experiences? Did metformin help all by itself? I have PCOS. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!!

587778 tn?1261397118 s own and had no problems. Then in September 2008 I started Metformin 500mg 1x a day along with my bcp. In Jan 2009 I upped the dose of Metformin to 2x a day per my doctor. I stopped my bcp in August 2009 and now am just taking Metormin 500mg 2x a day. So far it seems to be working on it's own. I had a period in August and now a period in September. And they are close in time frame.
Avatar n tn From Aug 2008 to June 2009 to manage my diabetes my doctor put me on Brand - GLYCIPHAGE SR 500mg (Generic - Metformin HCL 500mg) Dosage - 1/2 Tab morning and evening which managed my sugar levels but it lead to severe weight loss. Now since last two months under a different doctor;s advice I have stopped this medicine and at the moment iam not taking any medicine to manage my sugar level.

Avatar f tn Like you, I started on 500mg once daily, and quickly increased it to 500mg twice daily. I had a period within a couple of months, but by July of August I had become more regular than ever. I now have a period every 5 weeks without fail. I hope that answers your question!
Avatar f tn I was recently prescribed metformin to add to my clomid regimen. He said start with 500mg/day for a week, work up to 1000mg/day for another week, then 1500mg/day but my question is, what time of day do any of you taking the same dosage take it? Im not sure if I am supposed to take 500mg morning, noon and evening or 500mg in the morning then 1000mg at night..ect.
Avatar f tn I was prescribed 500mg of Metformin, but decided to lose the weight without the medication. I am however taking 1000mg of Cinnamon, which has helped curve my appetite and keep my blood sugar in check. I thought I'd note that Metformin itself does not help restore a regular menstrual cycle, but losing all of that weight and keeping your blood sugar and hormones in check helped.
Avatar f tn My doctor just placed me on Metformin 500mg for 7 days, and then I will take it twice a day after that. I took my first pill today, and a little while later I got a headache and felt like I had to eat something. The weakness part went away, however I still have a headache. I was wondering how everybody eles' expierence with this medication was and if this really helps.
Avatar f tn Hi I have been diagnosed with pcos and have been on metformin for just over 2 mouths and have been on clomid. Now 4 weeks pregnant I am not sure I should proceed with metformin. I have an appointment with my doctor in another week so I just want some advise. I read on Internet it could help lowering the risk of miscarriage.

1256672 tn?1308690198 I am curious to the average time a woman is on Metformin alone before finding they are pregnant? What dosage are you on and for how long? I am currently on 500mg daily. I only have PCOS and not Thyroid or diabetes along with it. Just curious as to how the general population is doing. Side note-the nausea and gas only happened the first few days as I was taking metformin at night. I moved it to the morning and have been fine. I also take it halfway during my meal.
Avatar m tn I conceived my first cycle I was put on metformin currently i'm 19 weeks, I took the metformin until I was 12 weeks pregnant
193609 tn?1292180293 Your doctor didnt give you anything to jump start ur period? Or place u on bc pills? I take metformin 500mg 2x and yasmin bc pills. I hope by end of this year i will discontinue bc pills and ttc next yr.
Avatar n tn I take metformin 500mg twice a day. I got a little off track during the holidays and really had to focus on getting back on track. I've noticed a moderate level of cardio helps me keep My sugar levels down for example this last weekend I went out and got really wasted, a friend was in town and I over did it. Normally I don't drink at all anymore as we all no alcohol is full of sugar and extremely bad for you.
Avatar n tn I'm newly diagnosed diabetic and taking Metformin 500mg 2x a day. I have been taking it for about 10 days and have had the worse cramps and stomach pain! I'm not sure if it is my pre menstrual, which never feels like this, or the new medication. Has anyone had stomach pains or cramps as side effect of Metformin? I'm also taking Lisinopril-HTCZ.
Avatar f tn whats the chances of conceiving on clomid and metformin with pcos. ttc for 2 years.
