Hello I'm new to this forum I have a question on metformin

[MrsHookfin]

I found out over a month ago that I have pcos and high insulin level so my doc put me on metformin. The second day on the meds I had my period and after that my husband and I started ttc and not it's time for my period again and nothing has happend but for the past two weeks I have been having pregnancy symptoms and my doc told me to wait until a week after my missed period to take a test. Well my question is have any of you taken well to metformin had your first period and then missed the next period without being pregnant?

I finally started my period nov 1st and had mixed feelings.. I'm happy my period is tryna regulate but I'm veryyyyyy sad I'm not pregnant... My period ended on the 7th so we will be trying to concieve AGAIN

Before I was pregnant I was put on Actos Plus medicine and after I received my BFP I was then moved to metformin. I don't believe it can result in missing your period.

I sure will. My first period that I've had in over 5 months came on sept 24th then it got heavy on the 27th all thanks to metformin thank goodness I finally got a period. So it's now oct 29th and no period yet so next week I will be taking a pregnancy test hopefully I'm pregnant

Thank u both for your replys I appreciate it and I will take the test next week... I hope I am pregnant we really want a baby

Metformin will not cause you to miss a period. I suggest you take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. Your period might be irregular because of PCOS and if your only taking metformin, then it takes time to get your body normal again.
