Could my PCOD (ovarian condition) medications, Normaz and Glyciphage, be causing the frequent stomach aches, nausea, and constipation I've been experiencing for over two weeks?
Hello. It is completely understandable to feel concerned about these uncomfortable symptoms. Yes, your PCOD medications, Glyciphage (metformin) and Normaz (myo-inositol), could indeed be causing your stomach aches, nausea, and constipation. Digestive side effects are very common with metformin, especially during the first few weeks of treatment. To help ease these symptoms, try taking your medications with meals and staying well-hydrated. Since this has lasted for over two weeks, please reach out to your doctor. They can safely adjust your dose or suggest gentle remedies to make you feel much more comfortable. You are doing great, and this can be easily managed!
