queen_wench: well then i'll have to go slap my doctor and tell her she was wrong. sorry but your "public" research isn't anything compared to what doctors find out at their conferences. and i know what metformin does. my mother is diabetic and i've taken metformin. i know it makes your body more sensitive to the insulin it produces, but one of the side effects is hypoglycemia and i can imagine overdosing for your own personal gain won't help. and if someone is pre-diabetic, they are prone to hypoglycemia anyway and adding a medication to make them even more sensitive to the production of their insulin actually does cause them to experience the hypoglycemia more often. until of course, their body makes the correct amount of insulin. you should try reading the side effects from it. it's pretty clear. 2.) why, then, would my doctor tell me multiple times that metformin and clomid have ultimately the same effect as clomid alone if it wasn't true? sorry, but i trust a doctor over a google search. and you would think that considering one of the side effects of metformin is ovulation, along with clomid, the chances of multiples don't change. but i'll make sure and say a forum person said she was wrong so next time she goes to her conference she can inform them that they are all wrong due to a report someone found on the net that couldn't possibly be wrong. once again, i'll take my doc's word over yours. sorry. how much personal experience do you actually have with metformin or clomid?
