    Red face How many on Metformin?

    Just wondering how many ladies there are on BellyBelly who are on Metformin for TTC?

    One here.

    Would like to hear from others.

    Another one here. Sadly, wasn't enough to fix my PCOS problem and there's also some serious male factor problems to deal with as well so we're also doing IVF.

    BW,Happy Easter first of all.

    You really have had a tough TTC journey!! Mine has been tricky, nothing like yours though. Thankfully Metformin helped us get #1 and hopefully #2 as well.

    I wonder how many others we will hear from?

    i'm on metformin too - fell pg with #3 on metformin - had previously been on clomid about two months before (diagnosed with PCOS in 1996) although i suspect i've had it a long time - fell pg with #2 on clomid. I also lost about 20kg before pg . Sadly #3 ended in m/c at 8w

    Molly, sorry to hear about #3.

    They wont put me on Clomid due to only having one ovary, and it can make cysts worse.

    Are you trying again? or are you on Metformin for health?
