I have been on met for 2 years in February. I actually got af 1 1/2 months after starting it. But it does take some woman up to a year before they actually see results.
good luck

I have been on metformin for 17 months now. I had my first period about 3 months after getting to 1500mgs.

4 years for me too. I started off on 1000 mg and worked my way up to 2000. I found that my sugar cravings were WORSE on 2000 then on 1500. My doc thought it was due to another med I was taking so she dropped me back to 1500. I had a "normal bleed" prior to the met. GL

I've been taking 2000 mg of Met for 4.5 years. I was prescribed Met for diabetes, although I had been diagnosed with PCOS many years before that.
