I'm on Met 1000mg /day and i've been on it for almost 2 years and no AF. I got my first AF in over 2yrs by taking Prometrium. However my flow was normal. Not heavy at all (i was expecting a blood bath since i thought i was storing up for 2 yrs). I'm low carbing for 3 weeks now and i've lost 23lbs since january. My insurance will be up on saturday so i'm kind of at a loss for what to do. My primary MD referred me to my Endo who was TERRIBLE so i only go to get refills for my met. I'm kinda lost as to what to do now. If anyone can help it will be much appreciated.
For my AFs to come regularly (every 38-40 days for me is regular) I had to be on 2500mg of met. Increasing the met may help, but I would see another OB. Or an Reproductive Endocrinologist (they helped me much more with my PCOS then the regular Endo did).
