I have PCOS and was on metformin since before. Now that im pregnant I dont know if I should continue or stop. Will ask my doc for sure but wanted to hear what others were told.
I had a smooth normal delivery, and my doctor kept me on metformin for the first few months to keep things stable. Definitely talk to your gynac before making any changes to your daily medicines.
I took it too because of my PCOS history, and it helped keep my sugar levels safe. Please check with your doc about whether you should continue it now, as they know your history best.
Hello dear, please do not stop taking metformin without your gynac's green signal. Many women continue it to prevent complications, but only your doctor can decide what is safe for your specific week.
Normally I prefer home remedies for small issues, but for prescription meds like metformin, you should only follow what your doctor says. Never stop it on your own without asking your gynac first.
I am also planning to conceive soon and my doctor has me on metformin currently. I was wondering the same thing, does the gynac usually ask us to stop it once the test is positive?
Metformin is often continued in early pregnancy to manage insulin resistance or prevent early miscarriage, but the decision is highly individual. Please consult your obstetrician to see what the plan is for your dosage.
Keep your mind peaceful and pray for the baby's health. Regarding metformin, just follow your doctor's advice carefully and don't stop it on your own, God will keep everything fine.
Along with whatever daily medicine your doctor prescribes, gentle walks in the morning can also help regulate sugars, if your doctor allows. But yes, please ask your gynac before stopping metformin.
