Glucophage (metformin) and yeast infectionsFrom: K. (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 13 Jan 2003 10:58:45 -0600 (CST)
I've been receiving treatment for 10 months for Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. The endocrinologist said that based on my medical history I probably have PCOS as well and put me on Glucophage (metformin). I have tried this medication on three separate occasions and get a horrible yeast infection after about 4 weeks of treatment. The endo says the Glucophage has nothing to do with it. It will not go away until I stop taking the Glucophage. I'm 39, had a successful pregnancy and not looking to get pregnant again but he wants me to stay on it. I take no medications other than Synthroid. Has anyone else had this problem?
