Hey Jacinta,

Im not sure about what brand of pill it was, but i know she has been on 3 different ones. I do remember her telling me that her dr said that some people are just affected by the pill no matter the differences, and she could make a choice to take it or not.

That said, she doesnt have pcos, or endo, and has never had any issues or problems with her periods or anything. So maybe the pros didnt outweigh the cons for her situation, but maybe it could help you to ask your dr about it, and whether a different one would help or not.

I also take metformin, the brand is diabex but im sure its the same thing.. and in the beginning i did feel a bit unwell, and also lost my appetite!
I still get a slight upset tummy but thats the worst of it, and i have been taking it for about 5 months.. it seems to be lessening the longer it goes on..

Maybe some panadol will help?

When you see the dr mention it to her and see what she says. My dr had warned me it might happen so i didnt worry too much.
