hi girls i still havnt got the witch this has never happened before im now 6 days late im getting really worried if i am pregnant shouldnt i be getting a positive on a hpt at this stage?

urghhh...so im on 1500 (3 tabs a day) after slowly building up to this dose...and i this is TMI but im getting the runs with it..i no this is a common side effect and im willing to put up with it...i hope this passes soon...3rd week of taking metformin..

i also get slight headaches and feeling sick.

this im all willing to put up with aslong as it gets me my baby

Try taking Dramamine at night when you take it. It's an over-the-counter motion sickness pill, but it worked for me on the first try. I tried taking Met with my dinner, but I was horribly nauseated the next day. I up my dosage from 750mg to 1500mg tomorrow. We shall see if it still works. Hope you feel better soon and fx that you get your BFP!

Hey Ladies, quickie....
I take 2x500g Met a day. One in Morning with breakfast and 1 with my dinner. Should I be taking these both together at the same time?

Not really sure hun...i take 1500mg a day 3 tabs - 1 with brekkie,lunch and dinner! so im not sure if it makes any diff really! sorry i cant be more help xx

 

[littlebopeep]

I take 1500mg i take one in morning and 2 at night i dont think it really matters when you take them as long as you get your dosage xxx

 

[bumpyboo]

hi ladies!! what dosage of metformin is everyone on?? Im only on 500mg a day?! isnt this really low?? Quite possibly why its doing NOTHING for me!!

 

[littlebopeep]

Hi bumpyboo you should ask your FS to increase your dosage at your next consultation Im on 1500 mg although on other forumns ive seen some women on 2000mg but they seem to be in the states

 

[bumpyboo]

I will ask, i went to my drs and she said it was up 2 the gynae, oh well im back at the gynae at the end of moth but i bet he will just up it for another 3 months instead of clomid!!

 

[littlebopeep]

bumpyboo i know here your coming from my Fs wont give me clomid because im ovulating on my own i was so upset especially because i have only one tube i thought it would give me a boost and ive seen loads of people on this forumn getting clomid eventhough they are ovulating

 

[bumpyboo]

So annoying isnt it!!! Hope you get it soon xx

 

[littlebopeep]

thanks bumpyboo fixed for us all xxxx
