Hi Brussel Sprout! Thanks for your reply. Yes I am so relieved metformin brought on AF. If I don't get pregnant on met, by July, we've decided to start taking clomid too.
I have indeed been following a low GI diet, and exercising, and I think both these things combined with the metformin has given me my miracle AF. However, last night I was very naughty and ate chips at the pub, so maybe this made me sick this morning? (Also had a glass of white wine and half a pot of beer... )
I saw the doctor today and she thinks maybe a cyst/follicle ruptured, which caused the abdominal pain, and she thinks that right at the time it ruptured, that might have been when I got the nausea, light-headedness and cold sweat. I feel better now, just a slight pain in my abdomen (it was never unbearable, just worrying). I'm right at the end of my period so was very confused as to why I was getting pain, and it didn't feel like period pain.
Also I rang my gyno but he wasn't in, so his receptionist said it's common for PCOS women to have some pain in the ovary areas when AF comes for the first few times. Not sure if she's right but hopefully all is good.
Oh ok, so if there was a cyst that ruptured, that is a whole other story...I never had issues drinking on the met, but I never drink a lot so not sure how alcohol affects it...As for the chips, not sure that would do it, that is most likely to get you running to the bathroom...lol.
Well good luck at the doctor's office and let me know what it is...I am curious, as I too have recently started met.
Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I am still waiting on AF, it has been 4 weeks since the MC so im hoping i will get it soon then can start taking the clomid and keep my fingers crossed.
