Tell me, is the Glucophage dosed differently? And what dose are you trying? Thanks so much!>-- >>J Sweet >> Marti, My doctor has me on 1500 a day which with the RX is 3 pills but only 1 time a day instead of 3. I find it easier for me because I'm was always forgetting to take one at noon.It is a time release so it doesnt hit you all at once and My diarehha has stopped now which is good:) I will find out Friday if it has worked as far as with ovulation. I go for an ultrasound to see if i have any follicles. I took provera to start me and then clomid for help with ovulation ,I'm keeping my fingers and everything else crossed that it worked :) If I were you I would give the RX a try, everyones different but it just might work for you too. Good Luck !!! :)
