Cycle Buddies???

Does anyone have PCOS and is undergoing treatments to get pregnant?
I was diagnosed in 2002 with PCOS. I have been trying to get pregnant for 6 months now. I am on Metformin 1000mg daily. I took Clomid on days 3-7 of my cycle. On Friday, I got an Ovidrel shot. Now I have to wait 2 weeks to test!
Is anyone going through this with me!!!!

Good luck!!

Are you taking OPKs? I've read that OPKs don't work properly with PCOS, have you or anyone else read or heard that too?

Hi there!

I was diagnosed with PCOS about 2 years ago. The only time I have a period is with birth control or if it's induce with provera. I'm currently on my 5th round of clomid. I did three rounds of 50mgs (clomid) and last cycle I did 100mgs with 500mgs 2x a day of metformin. This cycle I've increased the metformin to 1500mgs a day and will still be on 100mgs of clomid (I actually started clomid yesterday).

I was just diagnosed with PCOS on Tuesday. I have been trying to conceive for about 5 years now, with no luck. My doctor did some blood work on me, and awaiting the results. He went ahead and wrote me a prescription for birth control, but that is it. I have never had a regular cycle, and sometimes miss them.  It has been so stressful, especially with no insurance until now. I am hoping and praying that getting my cycles regular will help!! Any other recommendations until then?

I was also diagnosed in 2002. I'm on metformin 500 mg 3x day. Clomid never worked for me. Did my first round of injectables and worked for us. I'm now 6 weeks along and going in for my first ultrasound next Thursday.

HI,

I just started with the help of provera and will be taking clomid 100mg cd 5-9

I just started taking metformin on dec 2nd!  I am only taking 500mg right now but will be taking 1000mg soon

Was this your first round of clomid?  This is my 3rd round!

My doc recently confirmed that i have PCOS but I have known since I was a teenager since I had all the symptoms of it, I just never asked. It was never really a problem since I was on the pill and having regular periods. I have been off the pill for 4 years and my periods were 2 times a year and then nothing at all for over a year. My Dh and I were TTC without help for about 2 months and I knew I would need help so I decided to see my doc and he didn't hesitate to help me at all.

hoping this will be my month but I don't have my hopes up to high!
