If you are having AF on a regular cycle, then you might be able to use the fertility monitor/OPKs. The biggest problem with those is when you are irregular. At least that is my understanding.

Good luck!!

I too stopped my Metformin the day before surgery and luckily have not needed to go back on it since my surgery almost 4.5 years ago.  Prior to surgery I too never ovulated, but you're lucky...you at least did ovulate with Clomid, I was found to be Clomid resistant as I got to the max doseage with no response.  I'm happy to report that once I hit my goal weight of 140lb at 1 year post op I was not only cycling on my own but according to my temps (recorded at fertilityfriend.com) I was ovulating as well!  We waited 3 months after I reached goal to finish a medication I was taking for a + TB skin test (but - chest xray) and timed BD with ovulation according to my temps and immediately got pregnant.  I had a healthy pregnancy & baby girl.  Then earlier this year I temped again and once again timed BD with ovulation and got pregnant immediately again!  So far this pregnancy has been a little more difficult (basically I had some spotting in the beginning & due to baby size my back hurts more but that's it) but has been healthy and she'll be here next Monday.

Anyway I've never used the OPKs or fertility monitors, just my temps.  But if you want to use them in conjunction with your temps go for it!  Good luck!
