Anyone else on Metaformin?

[Belfast1]

I just stated my second full ICSI cycle (after 1 failed fresh and frozen on NHS)

Im going private now and the clinic have put me on metaformin. I'm feeling very nauseous on it, anyone else had this?

Yes I've been on it since Oct and get nauseous between meals just before I eat again. I have found it has got better and the main thing is to be careful with upping your dose... go slowly. I'm on 3 x 500mg per day but started with 1 then alternated 1 and 2... then 2.... then alternated 2 and 3...then 3 etc.... build it up slowly over a month and it will be easier. Also drink lots of fluids to avoid headaches xx

Hi, I was put on the metaformin three times a day, I was being sick constantly on them. My gynaecologist changed mine to the modified release tablets, which is just once a day and I'm now fine, with no symptoms. 😀
