I started Metformin in Oct - same dose as Mrs P - 500mg once a day, I take it at night I have it with food ie I eat half of something and then have the tablet then finish the food. I had side effects for the first week or two but they have gone now. My Gynae said to continue with the dose until I see him again in January.

I was prescribed Metformin due to PCOS and to hopefully help with ovulation as I had an Implanon in and don't know if I will ovulate just yet.
