Default I need some serious AF help, PLEASE!

I am at my wits end and don't know what to do!

February 14th, I started AF
February 15th, I started 500mg Met - first time ever on this med
February 28th, stopped AF - yes 14 days later!!

March 8th, started AF - yes just 9 days later!!
Today, still AF with no end in sight!

What do I do? Wait it out? I go back to my endo next Friday. These are no trickle AFs either - they are soak through super plus tampons!

If it were me, I would call my doc. It can't hurt to call and see what they have to say, right?

I've been on met for a few years now. I started out on 1000mg a month later I was bumped up to 1500mg and a month after that I was bumped up to 2000mg. It took met about 7 or 8 months to help with my AF's after I was on 2000mg. Mine were and are as heavy as yours are. I still have one very very very heavy day and the others are manageable. I have noticed that if I watch what I eat and not eat a lot of fat and carbs, my AF's aren't quite as bad. I would let your endo know what is going on. I hope this helps.
