Glucophage XR and PCOSFrom: anonymous@obgyn.netSun, 27 Jul 2003 20:00:26 -0500 (CDT)
Three years ago, I started taking Glucophage. After 7 months, I was up to 1500mg/day, with little problems relating to the side effects of glucophage. After that 7 months, I concieved! This was a shocker as it took us TEN YEARS! We have tried clomid in the past and had no luck. So, I have had my baby, a healthy pregnancy, and have breast fed her for a year. I have recently weaned her (sad!!)and have been back on the glucophage (500mg/day) for a couple weeks. I am sicker than ever! I am sick ALL DAY LONG, especially when I eat anything, and I am trying to watch the carb intake. I am using about 75 carbs a day, slowly weaning myself down to about 25-30. BUT, I dont even want to eat ANYTHING! I wondered that, as a physical I had a couple months ago showed that I had high prolactin levels (still breast feeding) and since I just weaned my dd 3 weeks ago, if maybe having the high prolactin levels would be causing me to feel so sick all the time? I am anxious to be back on the medication to help lose some weight and to add to our family, but man, do I feel just sick ALL THE TIME!! Any advice? I have started taking the glucophage xr (500 mg/day) at bed time with food and lots to drink so that way I can sleep through the worst time of it. It usually kicks in 2 hours or so after I take the medication. So just wondered! Thanks!
