A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭

I have recently started taking Metformin and it’s causing stomach issues. I experience nausea and diarrhea. Does anyone have any tips on what I can do to help with the diarrhea? I have thought about taking Imodium or trying a probiotic to see if that helps. If there has been anything that has worked for you please let me know!
