In the last few years significant progress has been made in the study of formaldehyde (H2CO) 6cm masers. We have discovered four new H2CO maser regions in the Galaxy resulting in a total of seven massive star forming regions where H2CO masers have been detected. In this contribution we discuss one of the aspects of our ongoing research, i.e., variability of H2CO masers and its relation with young regions of massive star formation. In particular, we report the discovery of possible periodic H2CO and CH3OH maser flares in IRAS 18566+0408.
