Hi, i found out i had pcos one month ago. I have been out on the lowest dose of metaformin and the onky thing i have noticed is light cramping on and off. Myself and ny oartner have been trying for a baby for 6months and no luck so far. I am taking elevit metaformin and fish oil tablets and still not ovualating.😞
So when I read that metformin causes gas/upset stomach/diarrhea they weren't kidding. It's been about a month now and I want to know...am I going to be plagued with diarrhea forever???? It doesn't seem worth it. I'm scared to eat because I don't know what's going to make my upset stomach and diarrhea even worse than it already is.
It takes awhile but sometimes the side effects come back
Also its due to my pcos i havent gotten one? If i regulate my hormones, will i get my period?
I see..

What is the longest you missed your period? Mines a guessing game. I once went two years without one and then usually it’s once every year.
I haven’t had one since 2008....
I struggle with my weight so badly. It's frustrating I eat small portions, exercise, and eat mostly non- processed food, I don't know what else to do I lost a bunch and then gained it all back and then some and I didn't do anything differently. I've also had 6 miscarriages. I'm so frustrated with my body and even with antidepressants I feel suicidal. People are so mean to me because of my weight and try as I might I just keep going up. I was on metformin and it made my depression and anxiety go… read more

Started periods at age 17, went on the pill at 18 so no real way of monitoring regularity of cycles. Tried to conceive from 2016-2021 but made the decision to stop fertility treatment. Have a very healthy and active lifestyle, healthy weight but would gain weight easily if I was not careful. No period at all now for 2 years. Not sure if this is a cause for concern and whether I should contact my GP.
Hmm so I didn’t know until my most recent Pap smear that for women like us it’s helpful to get a period at least every 90 days (to help prevent uterine cancer). You may wanna ask your GP or gyno if… read more
I was diagnosed with PCOS about a month ago. What were your first steps for dieting? Also, so many of you go to a nutritionist or have you mainly done the research on your own?
I started keto recently to try and get my cycles regular and cut down on the inflammation of my body. I’ve lost 8 lbs so far and had a cycle 3 days shorter than the one before. I didn’t see a… read more
When does the weight gain stop? I am insulin resistant and take metformin. I don’t think its working because i keep feeling bigger as the days go on. Should i take supplements? How do you know what else you need? I dont even want to eat anymore its so bad.
Please don’t starve yourself!!!! It’ll make things worse:( fiber is your friend. Don’t worry about the calories. Focus on lean protein and fruits and veggies. You’re body will balance out
Its the second time as far as I can remember that it's happened to me as both times when my periods have started I've swapped my sensitive bladder pads for my period pads like I always do and every time I've gone to the toilet there's nothing on the pad, but there's blood on the tissue and it makes me think that my periods have somehow gotten "stuck" inside me. It's the only way I can think of to explain it.
