Is metformin changing the colour of my poo?

weird question, sorry if you're having a meal, but has anyone else taking metformin noticed that their poo is a bit yellow? I've had this for 3 years so not a serious thing, and Dr is not concerned, and it's not all the time, just most of the time. Spoke to a friend on metformin who has noticed the same, but I've not seen or heard it mentioned anywhere else! Many thanks people!

I cant say that it has happened to me, the only side effects I got were the usual stomach cramps and wind and thankfully they only lasted a few weeks/months.

Could it be something in your diet perhaps?
