there are many problems that can lead to lack of ovulation - and if the doctor is suggesting you try clomid then i would assume that they have agreed your wife is having anovulatory cycles. any cycle in which your wife doesn't ovulate is a cycle in which you cannot conceive - so from that perspective, yes, it's a big problem.
for some people, clomid and metformin will help, but for others (like me) they don't work, and you need to move to other forms of treatment
given that your wife has been put on metformin, i would assume that your wife has polycystic ovaries - and for a lot of people with PCOS, it can be hard to conceive.
trust in your doctor to guide you. there is no guarantee any of it will work - but try everything that they suggest to optimise your chances of having a baby
When read somewhere about PCOS, it has been mentioned that symptoms of PCOS include
~ irregular or non-existent periods
which is not in case of my wife. She has regular periods. and also from the reports I didn't see any of these words. If i remember, doctor wrote one word called 'No DF'. please tell me what exactly does this mean. Do this mean that she is not ovulating properly?
unfortunately, i've not come across "no DF" so can't answer that one
PCOS often has irregular or non=existent periods - but not always. it would depend on the severity of the problem. if i were you, i'd go back to your doctor and ask why your wife has been prescribed the meds she is on - there has to be a reason - i doubt they'd put her on metformin without a reason. it's very hard for us to comment about specifics, only in general - and harder still without your partners medical history
I am no expert like these ladies are.....but i guess there would have to be a good and major reason as to why the DR has put her on those meds so it may help settle you're mind if you ask

. so they can be cured right?? like treatment with clomid/metformin in the next cycle so that my wife can ovulate.
