Metformin side effects!

  • Hi Everyone!

    Ive been part of this site for a while but im pretty new to PCOS.. my doctors always thought i had it but never did anything about it.. until now..
    I started taking metformin 850mg once a day about 10 days ago and i have to say that im always tired!! i cant concentrate during my studies and before i could go on studing for hours! im always tired and not as alert as i used to be..

    has anyone experienced anything like this?!?
    Thanks!
  • second chance sorry I wish I could help I didn't experience any of those symptoms but other ones such as ALWAYS feeling sick to my stomach. Never got sick and others. I hope you can find out what is going on. I do know I just read somewhere where it can decrease Vitamin d which can affect your being tired so I would have that checked and than start a vitamin d supplement.

    HTH good luck
  • the thing is that i didnt have any of the stomache aches that everyone has but i just feel tired ALL the time!!!! hope it goes away soon....
