You are right, I was expecting metformin to make life easier for me:) I expected it to decrease the amount of days I felt low in energy, my fainting, cravings... I read some good stories about metformin, so I was expecting to have one of those stories. Like I wrote above, I was even more...

Thank you very much for this detailed explanation. In my case it is interesting that I had been trying to follow high protein/veggies/healthy fat and low carb diet for last 2 years when I was diagnosed. It was not a very strict diet but I had been more careful than everyone I know. People even...

I couldn't see a similar story, people who has delayed or missed periods mostly have pcos, but my overs are totally healthy. I will still go and have another look, maybe repost this to there. Thank you very much.

That's totally fine, thanm you for trying to help me. Sorry if I couldn't describe it well, I am not waiting to eat after metformin. K take it just after my meals. I am not avoiding fat, its just that I don't like too oily foods and after my struggle with insulin resistance, I am trying to lose...

I wish you'd read what I wrote before writing 'dumb':) Like I said, I visited my gynecologist and he said everything seemed normal, we are just waiting for the results of other hormones. I am not that uneducated. Thank you for your answer.

Hi all, I hope you can help me. I am on merformin for around last 6-7 weeks because of my insulin resistance. The result of my ogtt test showed that while my insulin was rising to a higher number, my blood sugar was going down rapidly. So it was reactive hypoglycemia due to insulin...

I always checked if what I was consuming included any sugar. When they had carbs, I made sure these carbs were complex ones (like bulgur or lentil). I have been reading a lot about nutrition and diet, since I was 15, so I believe I didn't go wrong when I tried low carb diet. It still made my...

Yes definatelly, that sounds like a positive thing. Fingerscrossed - hopegully it will help me too.

I wonder if it will work too... I guess I'll only be able to see it clearly in 2-3 months.

When I say protein, I mean meat, chicken, fish (mostly salmon), eggs. I have never used any protein included supplement.

It was more like a paleo diet. For example, I used to eat - breakfast: eggs, high fat (healthy-organic) cheese, 15 mixed nuts, tomatos, cucumber for breakfast. - in the middle: a coffee with full milk (sometimes) - lunch: a small soup, a portion of meat (with it's own fat), a small side salad...

I agree with you, but seriously, no one can say that I have gained these 5 kg's as muscle mass. It's obvious, and what I used to wear doesn't fit anymore. That's another issue, I don't feel like the resistance work (what I do is way heavier than what other girls in the gym do) help me to get...

I got it know! Thank you so much!

Oh okay! I will definatelly do that. I hope it gives me an idea about my issue with the exercise. Thank you!

When I did low carb-sugar diet, I didn't use metformin. In fact, I didn't even know I had insulin/blood sugar issues. I was just trying to şose weight with that diet. So you mean if I do low carb/sugar diet together with the metformin, I will benefit from it?
