I'm Currently Feeling:  | I haf been takin metformin since january as suggested by my GP got AF within a week very little though...GP referred me to the fertility clinic the consultant thr ask'd me 2 strt clomid and he said metformin dusnt help much (that's wht he said.)...and ask'd me to continue met wid clomid as metformin helped me lose weight .....BUt I've got AF in feb on time I dnt really knw is it cuz of metformin or bcuz I lost weight....
All in all I guess clomid is better than metformin (as told by my consultant)...Heard a lott bout metformin though...
I've been takin metformin and finish'd a cycle of clomid ....had a scan on the 3rd on dis mnth waz told dat the clomid wrked and would be ovulating within 24-48hrs...Im post ovulation now...fingers crossed until the 18th ..Hope AF dusnt show her face agn..
wish u luck wid metformin...hope it wrks for u ...... | | | | Status: Offline

| How is everyone doing?
I'm now in to Week 2 and have increased to 500mg twice daily. Not feeling too bad and I think/hope  is on her way. Had tummy cramps for the last few days and a small amount of dark discharge for the last two(sorry if tmi).
On Wednesday I had the shakes quite bad but they went about half an hour after I ate something. Has anyone else had this? How is everyone else doing? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I've stopped taking my met. I had to do something as my AF is so far overdue it's ridiculous. Every since I stopped a began to get regular AF cramping a couple of days later. I am going to start again after AF is finished, and with the clomid I hope that it will equal a good month! |
