I've been on met since June. I had my first period after seven weeks on met. I've had one every 4 to 5 weeks since (which is great considering I can go for upwards of six to nine months between periods on my own), Last week I had blood tests to check my hormone levels, and I'm waiting to see how they've improved. I do feel great, but haven't lost any weight. I am not eating the way I should. I'm not trying to ovulate as I have three kids (two with clomid, one suprise) and my tubes are tied. My doctor told me it can take many months, six or more, to really have things balance out. I'm thirty six, so my hormones have been screwed up for a long time.

Good luck.
