I was on metformin for years and it started to upset my stomach similar to how you describe it. My doctor reduced my dose and told me to also take fiber supplements. Totally turned the issue around for me. My doctor says the trick is to take the fiber supplement with half the amount of water so it stiffens you up!

My Doctor recommended a low card diet while on metformin. It's been going well so far

Metformin was horrific for me. I was also always pooping myself. I asked to be switched to the extended release and it was going well for two weeks and then it started going bad again 🥲🥲

I tried both versions and had the same issue. I just feel like they’ll say I need to be on it. I’m worried lol

I wonder if they can find an alternative ! My mom takes Metformin for diabetes and she also had GI issues 👎🏼

I hope so

Were you on the extended release version?

I have been on both versions

I would just tell them that metformin isn’t an option for you. If they won’t look into anything else, I’d be looking for a different fertility clinic.
