I don't know what to do. I am hungry all the time. I feel like I have all the PMS symptoms but no AF. Sometimes I find myself crying like a baby. I tried not to think about it, but it is hard. Going on 14 months and no AF. I'm taking Metformin and Prometrium. So frustrated!!!!!!!!!!!

That is correct. No AF in 14 months. Nothing seems to work. Provera, Metformin, Prometrium. Nothing!!!

I did ask my doctor about the Spiro. He said anything over 50 mg could mess up AF. He thought I should be on a higher dose, but he wouldn't put me on it for that reason.

Thank you for the well wishes.

I can relate to the being hungry. If you lower your carbs and eat several small meals throughout the day, it'll help. I've been doing that for almost a week and have lost 7 lbs so that's a bonus! Hope you are feeling better

I completely agree re: spiro. I went off the 50 mg dose of that drug because it completely halted my periods, and since regaining my Af was my #1 priority, it really defeated the purpose. Missing or non-existant periods is very common with spiro (even the low dose), and I encourage you to re-think that option to bring on your period. It is dangerous to go that long without a visit from AF.

All the best!
