So I was diagnosed back in May 2009 and the doctor started me on metformin 500mg. One week later I started taking 1000mg a day. This week, the doctor just put me on 1500mg a day. The only real problem in my blood work was my FSH/LH ratio. No issues with testosterone, etc. I'm a thin cyster too. I've been feeling so much better since I started Metformin. But boy, have I been feeling some new things. My chest has gotten bigger, and every time I changed a dose I am super tender there. I feel a lot going on in my lower abdomen (around where my ovaries are). It's so strange to have all these feelings because to be honest it feels like my body is on overdrive trying to balance itself out. Don't get me wrong, it's really encouraging because it gives me hope that the metformin is doing it's job. But sometimes I feel like I'm going through puberty again (especially with the mood swings)!
Has anyone else had experiences like this? I've looked to see if this is normal but haven't found much about it. I'd love to hear some feedback.
