Metformin

Eden

Hey!

I was put on metformin about 3 weeks ago! How low did it take for you to really see it take effect? I can tell I have a lot more energy 🎉🎉

I noticed changes within 21 days of being on metformin! Got my first period in 4 months 21 days after starting metformin then it became regular 28 days since. I also noticed I stopped snacking on sweet things (which also helped with the side effects of metformin). My moods were so much better and lot more energy. I was on metformin for 3.5 years. I stopped metformin as I got pregnant eventually after trying for 4 years (I needed clomid to fall pregnant). I am starting back on metformin this week to help my body regulate again after baby was born last year. I did dosage from 250mg right to 2000mg.

This is my 2nd attempt taking metformin. I stopped it before due to it making me so sick, I do not see any changes or improvements it is making in my body other than making me sick and losing my appetite. Last time I took it for about 8 months starting at 500mg up to 2000mg ..i went back down to 1500mg and then down to 1000mg before I stopped it completely. Now I’ve been taking it for about 3 weeks and again it makes me sick and I will not be taking it daily. I take 1000mg every other day and that’s all I am willing to take because otherwise I get so violently sick. 😭😭😭

Are you on the slow extended release one? Are you making sure you are on a low carb low sugar diet on metformin?
