Well I can tell you from my new experiance that it will affect everything. My doctor did not tell me anything about low carbing!!! He told me to start taking the glucophage 850 mg and after the fist 2 months to then stop taking the birthcontrol pill. Well I did that and the 3rd month I got my period on my own for only 2 days. I was excited at first and hopeful but then the next month came and went with NO period. Plus I have been gaining weight and all of the sudden I have this huge stomach worse then ever before. So I am back on the pill (just to get my hormones in check) and today I officailly started low carbing it. After a month I will start taking the glucophage again,, ( I did not have any money to get another script for it I do not have insurance right now). I will also work out at least 2 times a week to start ( Remember I am out of shape.)SO I will see. Everyone else says they lost weight because of low carbing now it is my turn.
