1296650 tn?1314365206 Thank you ladies!!! I've been doing a lot of reading on PCOS - and I'm going to call my doctor and ask him about Metformin - because right now, i'm just i'm clomid. He wants me to try Clomid 100mg's next month. Maybe just to see if my follicles are maturing or responding to the Clomid....Not sure - but thanks so much for the advice and hope!! I so appreciate it!!!!
Avatar n tn In one study conducted at Virginia Commonwealth University, 24 obese PCOS women were given metformin or placebo. The 11 women who received the metformin experienced a reduction in insulin levels, which slowed the activity of an enzyme in the ovaries that stimulates excess production of testosterone. As a result, testosterone levels also dropped.(3) Glucophage appears to do the same for non-obese PCOS women, according to a study from the University of Medical Sciences in Poznan, Poland.

Avatar f tn I am just wondering if any women have PCOS and have conceived, and how the pregnancy is going? I have been trying for 4 years with no success and I am starting to get a little depressed since I have pretty much ovulated with every month of meds.. the other thing is I can not keep track of my ovulation and periods because I am so irregular, any suggestions on how to be able to know when you ovulate without having to buy test every month.
Avatar f tn i got a regular 28cycle period when i became active attending gym everyday and a healthy diet, for a year i was always getting my period every 28 days but when i stop attending gym and ate again my period became very irregular again. 2004 i was diagnosed with PCOS, was given provera and advised to have metformin. i got menstruated but still irregular, i did'nt continue having metformin as i felt dizzyness everytime im taking it. Now that im 36 i wanted and decided to get pregnant.
Avatar f tn Hi I have been diagnosed with pcos and have been on metformin for just over 2 mouths and have been on clomid. Now 4 weeks pregnant I am not sure I should proceed with metformin. I have an appointment with my doctor in another week so I just want some advise. I read on Internet it could help lowering the risk of miscarriage.
Avatar f tn I had pcos. I am currently 6 mths pregnant. The only thing that I would have checked is your progesterone levels. I suffer from low progesterone levels and had a few miscarriages before they figured it out.
Avatar f tn I had to stop taking metformin completely as soon as I got my pregnancy confirmed. I was taking it for PCOS and insulin resistance. My dr said I'll probably start taking it after delivery and after I finished breastfeeding.

Avatar n tn My friend has a bad case of pcos and shes been on Metformin, Clomid, Dexamethasone.. Is there anything else she can do or try to get prego..
Avatar n tn From what i've read PCOS effects some women a bit different, some the same but the things it has in common is it's hard to concieve a child, other family members have diabeties and women in your family have problems with their periods in some way, my mum has always had heavy periods like the blood would come out like water it was that bad, same happens to one of my aunties and some of my female cousins have really severe cramping so they have to be on birth control, it seems diabeties on
Avatar f tn hey how is everything? I have pcos and just took clomid and now i am 6 wks and 3 days along. i just saw the heartbeat today and everything looked good but the doc started me on prometrium 100 mg daily to help reduce m/c... i hope yours is going along good!
Avatar f tn Hello I also have pcos. I havent had any problems with my pregnancy as im just entering my second trimester. I did however stop taking my metformin medication when I found out I was pregnant even though they said it was still okay. I didn't want to chance anything. As long as you get past the 1st trimester all your worrys go away mine did at the second ultrasound and seeing the baby wiggle around gave me alot of reassurance. Good luck!
435139 tn?1255460391 t like that idea and my friend said that her doctor put her on metformin (she has pcos though) and if not pregnant in a couple months, she is going on clomid...Does Metformin help you get pregnant? Anyone who has any insight on this that is willing to share, it would be greatly appreciated!
Avatar n tn you are not having your periods because of the PCOS and the Metformin is very effective with PCOS dont worry your dr knows what he is doing and this will help getting your period back, but make sure you dont rush things , it takes sometime
Avatar n tn I got my lab work drew today, and a ultrasound. I have PCOS. I took clomid 100mg and on metformin 1000mg. The nurse told me I have 4 mature follicles on one ovary and a few on the other. Also that I had ovulated on my own so keep doing what I am doing. What is next????
Avatar f tn My husband and I have been married 16yrs and just went through a 1yr separation we ended up getting back together and on June19,2014 found out I was pregnant with both our first baby and all my life I've had PCOS and gave up so when I found out I was excited but sadly the little blessing was not growing correct and I ended up with a miscarriage on July14,2014 I was about 8 to 12 weeks along and had the d&c procedure I've had 2 periods siSo my question is what is the best and fastest
Avatar f tn I have been on Metformin ( a GYN drug that induces ovulations...basically makes you extra fertile. I went on it when I was so completely stressed that I stopped ovulating for one month) and now my period is a bit late. Its usually on time and I took a test two days ago at my 7th day of missing my period and it came back negative. However, I have been researching and some will take a test one day and then a few days later it comes back positive.
