I was wondering, for any of you that have had success with met, what were your levels before starting?
My fasting insulin was 29 with 1000mg a day for 1 and 1/2 months.
testosterone 109
- explains hair and acne
Fasting glucose 74
glucose tolerance test
1 hour 104
2 hour 109
I am going back to met starting with 1000mg a day for 1 week and will increase to 1500mg a day for another week. When I took 1000mg, my acne improved big time but as you can see from my #s my levels were still elevated. I don't know if I will up it to 2000mg yet, I will probably stay at 1500mg for a month. I guess it depends on how I feel. Though I have read here that 2000mg helps most cysters.
What are your levels and what dose of met helped you the most (your threshold)?
