Re: desperate to be pregnant..on metformin

When I first went on Metformin, I had really weird periods and had more clots than normal. I would spot for a few days, then like the 3rd or 4th day I would have really really heavy flow with big ol clots, and then spot for another few days. My doc kept me on the 500 dose for 7 months. After a few months I think my body got too use to the met and went back to it's old habbits. I finally went to an RE and she upped it to 2000. This is my first menstrual cycle on the upped dose, and I had clots right out of the gate. I had a m/c in August of 2000 at 8 weeks. I had big clots, but it hurt a lot more and different. I think a lot of women think they are having m/c just because they have a heavy period or/and want to get pg so badly they look to this as a sign that they finally concieved. If you feel you had m/c go to your doc and see if they can detect any hcg. If you're filling a pad up every two hours or less that's cause for alarm. Make sure you listen to your body, but try and use an objective mind...(as much as possible). I have been trying to concieve since my m/c and it's a really hard battle for cycsters. It can be done. I know a gal who is pg with her 7th and 8th baby right now, and she has PCOS. She had help concieving, but she had healthy babies. I wish you all the luck and babies you want. I would recommend seeing a RE if you are not, they can really help. Amber
