I'm reading where others are starting 500mg and working up to 1000, 1500, 2000 mg per day.

Is it common for there to be no plan to up the dosage? I just started yesterday and have a follow-up on March 13.

Curious, this is all new to me.

The first time it was prescribed to me, I was instructed only to take one pill a day. I was not TTC and had just been diagnosed.

I started at 500 mg. in November and my doctor doesn't want me to up my dosage for some reason. I am TTC and a thin cyster and he said it could be too much for me to handle! I don't know if I trust that though...I want to up my dosage! I have had three periods (currently have one) since I started! My doc said that if I am not pregnant by May that we are going to start clomid then. Good Luck!

I am only on 500mg a day and am not sure if my doc is planning on upping my dosage. I did get AF back, which was the reason for starting the Met, so I guess it worked!
