Hi All,

I was dx with PCOS this year in January. I am overweight and trying hard to TTC. Actually my DH & I started TTC from december last year. After i was dx +ve with PCOS i had a 3 months ourse of meds like Metformin, Microgest and Folic Acid. this dint help me out. Than  went to doc2 3 weeks a ago and found I dint have much of a progress with meds from doc1. Then she(doc 2) gave me Clomid and metformin and Duphoston(not sure of spelling) for cycle that month. I have had regular periods this year. today is my Cd 20. I went to the doc again last friday. She then asked me to double my dose of Metformin from 500g/day to 1000g/day. Along with duphoston which is just 10mg daily. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Really desperate on TTC and many a times i just loose confidence and hope. Then again I get a sense of positive feel. Gosh! The doc also informed me that she would try injectibles from next month. I am not sure what they are....Any idea anyone on this? Also i was surprised that I did only one cycle of Clomid then the doc dint prescribe for my next cycle...!!!! Am i on the right track??

Hi There,  If I were you I would be asking my doctor for a Beta HCG just confirm that you are not pregnant, HPT tests only start showing @ 50.,  Onc eyou have that done then your mind will be at ease for taking the medication.

Good Luck
