1500096 tn?1292945593 ve been unable to conceive. Any time my menstrual cycle becomes regular and i have sexual intercourse with my husband,menses ceases for months until i take some drugs that would be prescribed by the doctor. Few months ago, precisely in May, i went to a fertility hospital where, after i did a hormone profile, i was given 'fertilaid' to take for three months and then go back to hospital if conception doesn't take place.

1408770 tn?1283213203 She is taking Glucophage 850 three times a day and another tablet Diane 21 to regulate her menstrual cycle. She is over weight and she cant help to reduce it. She tries sometimes to walk and exercise but till now she is not getting any results. Her weight is 82 kgs. She is 28 years old and no she doesn't have diabetes right now but her doc (endocrinologist) said that those are pre-diabetic symptoms.
1546050 tn?1293688410 She then decided that I must be insulin resistant and put me on Glucophage 1 in the evening without even doing any tests or telling me anything about an eating plan etc. I am now following a low GI eating plan I got on the internet. My question is - should I be on Glucophage if I was not properly tested for insulin resistance and if my sugar test came out within normal range?
Avatar n tn My progesterone level was low (8) with that cycle, so the Clomid disage was increased to 100mg during the next cycle. I developed a cyst and did not ovulate with the 100mg cycle. My health care provider wants to increase me to Clomid 150mg, but I am afraid that I will just keep developing cysts. Does it make more sens to go back down to 50mg again, since I definitely ovulated (although the egg quality was poor)?
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 n tn Since I started seeing my family doctor (an MD) it has been determined that I may have polycystic ovarian syndrome based on my symptoms even though the pelvic ultrasound showed no cystic ovaries and even though my menstrual cycle is regular. They had started treatment with glucophage XR and obviously I could not be treated with BCP because of my history of pulmonary emboli.
Avatar m tn Polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormone imbalance in which the ovulation and therefore the menstrual periods are irregular. Glucophage or Metformin is a very good treatment for some cases which seem to be related to an imbalance in insulin regulation. Sometimes it works quickly. In other cases, adding a medication such as Clomid or Femara can be helpful. These medications can regulate the cycles, increase ovulation and shorten time to conception.
Avatar f tn Hi I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 18, but I've had the condition for years before that. My PCOS was coupled with Insulin Resistance, so I've basically lived with the 'tyre' of fat around my abdomen along with generally being overweight for most of my life. I've been on treatment (Glucophage for IR and birth control pills for PCOS) going on six years now. I've lost about 30kg in that time and still losing.
Avatar n tn she prescribed me glucophage 500 mg twice a day for six months. nowadays i am on glucophage and still unsuccessful to concieve. what should i do? i really need your help.
20220090 tn?1492761471 Hi I have Pcos but still had a regular cycle and conceived naturally with my son. I had my last last cycle 20 Feb so now more than a month late. The Gynecologist increased my glucophage to 850mg 1 X a day. My abdominal area gets pain that comes and goes. Also pain in both ovaries from time to time and my stomach feels hard. I can only see my Doctor on Wednesday for ultrasound. Did 2 X pregnancy test but negative. Did anyone experience similar symptoms?
736040 tn?1257436457 Unfrotunatley about a month or so after my recheck I stopped having my menstrual cycle again. he did a recheck on my levels and they were great! To date i have not had a menstrual cycle for a good 3-4 months. My question is...if my thyroid levels are good, then why wouldnt my menstrual cycle be normal?
1582332 tn?1296924865 Yes, the last few years, My doc told me its due to having Chiari and being around the 50 age range (I'm now 53 and cramps have lessened and so has pain), I still have cycle. I'm tested and my hormones read OK, no change of life yet. Everything is more sensitive, even my teeth and bite. My neck feels suffocated, headache comes and either left or right side of head and neck is intolerable. Being on an acid-free diet has helped me alot (read dropping acid).
Avatar n tn THE ONLY EXCEPTION WAS WHEN I WAS ON MY MENSTURAL CYCLE AND AGAIN I WOULD HAVE EXPLOSIVE DIARREAH (NOTICED A LITTLE BIT OF BLOOD). NOW I AM BACK TO THE PAINFUL DIARREAH, SOMETIMES IT HURTS TO SIT DOWN. i HAVE NO APPETTIE, IF I EAT EVEN A SMALL AMOUNT MY STOMACH HURTS AND FEELS FULL. IT SEEMS LIKE ITS A CONSTANT DULL ACHE OR CRAMPY FEELING THAT FLARES EVERY SO OFTEN. WITHIN THE LAST WEEK THE SUN HAS COME OUT AND ITS BEEN HOT AND I HAVE FELT WORSE AND SICK SINCE THE TEMPERATRE WARMED UP.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 22, and i am confused about my period. The last one came on the 6th september and till now i haven't seen the next one, and its the 12th of october already and it still hasn't come. Although i had protected sex on the 18th september and another protected one on the 1st october and another on the 4th october, but unprotected. During these periods, i had an ulcer crisis and i was on lansoprazole and amoxillin, tagamet, pcm for about 8 days.
Avatar f tn A woman with a light period is not gaining much thickness in her endometrial lining during the early part of the menstrual cycle. This is usually an indication that estrogen levels are lower than normal. If estrogen levels are low, progesterone levels are likely to also be low and a woman may or may not ovulate with her cycles.
Avatar f tn No i havn't taken a pregnancy test i was thinking i should but i've read implantation only last's a couple days and i've had this for aleast four days darkish and lightish. I've been on it for about 2 years now and never had anything like this and i've missed some pills in the past and still never had a weird cycle.

1572016 tn?1295761959 hi liz.. i can't tell you the no of times i fainted during my periods and that too in front of people and in the public LOL.... it's normal i guess.. in my case it was that i have very painful menstrual cramps so bad that i can't bear it and have to take a medicine.. now this pain and the flow of blood used to lower my blood pressure and as a result i felt dizzy and then things blacking out and finally fainted.. do you too experience pains dear?? it might be due to lack of iron also.
Avatar f tn Maybe speak to your doctor and have them do an exam. A number of things can cause this - cysts, PCOS etc so best to get it checked out.
Avatar f tn I was bleeding for a week and having mild to severe cramping for three straight weeks. I was feeling fatigued and suffering from severe mood swings and breast tenderness(I thought I was pregnant.) I was having all of these symptoms and my fibroid is smaller than a walnut.
Avatar f tn My last cycle was July 6 2012.
Avatar n tn t bleed but I have pelvic discomfort off and on. They do a pelvic exam and can send you to get a uterine ultrasound. That may also be the problem.
Avatar f tn I went about 6 months without a cycle but now am in the 5th week of a menstrual cycle. I am TIRED of it and ready for it to end but no end in sight!!! Anything I can do or just tough it out knowing the end is near?? I am taking vitamins and trying to eat right but not really exercising, just don't really feel like it.
Avatar n tn I have very regular periods and it still took us over 3 years to conceive a child and we had to use fertility drugs and procedures so it's worth you getting to the doctor on something like this, even if you don't want to have children someday. Take care!
Avatar n tn I was wondering why I get so sick with my menstrual cycle, the first two days are the worst, I feel like I'm gone to pass out. Is there any I can take to prevent these sickness.
