Week One on Glucophage--problems?

Hi!

I was recently diagnosed with IR and PCOS. I have always had regular periods and had no clue there were any problems (no hair loss, no acne, etc) until my husband and I began TTC. That's when we were sent to a RE who found the source of my problem.

On Monday I began taking Glucophage XR 1 per day to build up to 3 per day over the next 3 weeks. Well yesterday I started having serious cramping. Worse than I've ever had with my period. A couple hours later, I did start bleeding. It is also heavier than my normal period. I was not due to get my period for another 2 1/2 weeks. I haven't had any other side effects (no naseau, fatigue, etc). I'm am also not on any other medication (besides prenatal vitamins).

I'm wondering if this is normal.

Thanks for any help and insight!
