    Hi Tara,

    Sorry to hijack but how long were you on Diabex for? I have pcos and was prescribed diabex also, (Diabex XR) but it doesnt say how long i was suppose to take it for and is it safe while we are actively ttc or suppose to take it first then ttc again?

    DD, hope you find your answer soon and maybe a huge BFP!

    Hey Mum to one.

    I was on diabex for 5 months and then stayed on it till I was 16 wks pregnant. There is evidence that it can reduce the risk of miscarriage. It only took about 2 weeks before I got my period back and then after about 2 months I was having a regular 33 day cycle. I was on 3 tablets a day by the 3rd month and when I fell pregnant dropped down to 1 a day. So you would take it while ttc and possible once you fall pregnant. Good luck, I hope it works for you soon
