Default Short Cycles?

I just started back on Glucophage XR in the last several weeks, and this past week, I have worked up to my max dose of 2500 mg. Now that you have a lil of my background.

My cycles usually average about 44 days long, but this was 25! Has this ever happened to anyone else? Should I be worried?

Thanks!

My cycles got shorter on met, it was wonderful! I went from 38-42 day cycles to 26-30. The longer my cycles went the worse I felt, bloated, pms-ey etc. Now my cycles are manageable (also lighter flow now).

Met also made my cycles considerably shorter. I went from having 50-90 cycles to having 23-35 day cycles. I think it is pretty normal, and dont really think you should have a reason to be worried but maybe you can still bring it up next time you talk to your doctor. Good luck!
