PCOS and shortening cycles on Metformin

Posted by: cherryjo on Sun Nov 8, 2009

Hey ladies! I was recently diagnosed with PCOS and I also have a uterine fibroid. I started on Metformin on October 12th, which was the first day of my cycle. My cycles have been long, averaging 33-35 days, with a couple cycles going over 60 days. My question is, has anyone else who has taken Metformin for PCOS had their cycles suddenly go back to 28 days? Today is CD 28 for me and I just noticed some spotting and I have cramping also. I thought I had read some posts saying the met helped regulate cycles, just wondering if anyone has had that experience!
