PCOS women and Metformin

I got put back on metformin after getting off the nuva ring and not cycling.
Anyone get pregnant on just talking metformin? How many months did it take?
I'm going to be taking 1500mg a day.

I got my cycles back on Met, however I still needed femara to ovulate. Good luck.

Are you charting?

I am not charting temps. But charting my cycles. 

Sorry you are continuing to struggle with PCOS. I recently went back on metformin myself, 1500mg per day. I highly recommend the website www.soulcysters.com. The forums are very informative and supportive. There is a whole section devoted to metformin and another section to TTC with PCOS.
There are many women on that sight that have concieved with just metformin. Good luck!

I used to go on soulcysters all the time! It was a great site...I went on metformin but ended up needing the trigger shots to ovulate also. BUT..the metformin certainly helped! The worst side effect was the dirrhea it gave me..but I got thru it! It also helped that I went to e reproductive endocrinologist for my fertility issues..just a thought!

I'm a little over 8 weeks pregnant now, and i'm on 1000mg of Met daily.  I would think once your period regulates out you should be able to start charting ovulation.  This may be TMI, but once i was on Met, i was really able to tell when i ovulated by my cervical mucus.  I didnt even really have to keep an eye on the calender, i just new that when i noticed a change in consistency it was time.  Weird i know. 


Good luck!!

I did.  Metformin and really keeping track of my cycles.  If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch, I highly recommend the iPeriod App.  I really think that's what made the difference for me.  I concieved twice just doing the deed on the days it said I was fertile!

thank you ladies:D
