Default How long does it take???

I'm just wondering how long it takes before AF. I've been on Met XR (1000) for almost 3 weeks. I'm feeling very emotion and PMS like. Will it happen soon? I know everyone is different - just wondering how long for most people.

Thanks,
Mindy

I started 1500 mg in Aug 2001 and my first period arrived in Oct. Since you are on a lower dose it could be slower, espeically if your hormones are as stubborn as mine. Generally the minimum dose is 1500 mg, so you may need to get up to that point before you see AF as well. You may need to discuss your dose with your Dr.

Hope it helps!

I think it's different for everyone.

The first time I was on it (last year), I didn't have a chance to have AF; I got pg first! This time I started it 9 weeks PP, and AF came a week later.
